New York's equitable distribution law specifies that you are entitled to a division of all “marital property” assets that were acquired during the marriage. With few exceptions, marital property generally includes both spouses' income, purchases made with that income, and retirement benefits.
Remember, the Supreme Court of the State of New York is the only court that handles divorce cases. You should go to the Supreme Court in the county where you or your spouse now live to file your divorce papers. You cannot get a divorce in Family Court.
