FAQ
The Verified Complaint is the document your spouse and your spouse's lawyer have written up to give to the court to explain why he or she should be given a divorce from you. In New York State, because of the way the laws are written, you must have “grounds” in order to get divorced.
A Complaint for Divorce or Filing for Divorce is the formalized process of filing paperwork such that legal and factual issues maybe set forth and later addressed at trial, if necessary.
New York state law requires that the defendant in a divorce action be personally served with the Summons with Notice or Summons and Verified Complaint.
A complaint where the plaintiff (or, in limited cases, the plaintiff's counsel) swears to the allegations, demonstrating to a court that the plaintiff has investigated the charges against the defendant and found them to be of substance.
For assistance you may call (631) 853-4600 Monday through Friday, from 9am to 4 pm. Note: To initiate a complaint, you must complete and sign the complaint form and then send it back to us with the required documentation.
After a summons with notice is served, the defendant will demand that the plaintiff serve a complaint. The plaintiff must then have the complaint served within 20 days after being served with the demand, or the case may be dismissed.
If the defendant is not in Court within 1 hour from the time the case is scheduled, the Court will hear your case without the defendant. (This is called an inquest.) If you show enough evidence, you may win your case. If this happens the Court will enter a default judgment against the defendant.
Filing your complaint starts your case, but the summons is the document that is issued under the court's authority that notifies your defendant they are being sued and that they need to take action.
