At Jayson Lutzky, we understand that a contested divorce can be emotionally challenging and legally complex.

Our experienced team is here to guide you through the intricacies of a contested divorce in New York, and we're dedicated to protecting your rights every step of the way.
Understanding the Landscape of Contested Divorce in New York
A contested divorce occurs when spouses cannot agree on key issues such as property division, child custody, alimony, and child support. The process can be particularly complex in New York due to its equitable distribution laws and intricate legal procedures. Understanding the state's divorce laws is the first step toward safeguarding your rights.
Secure Expert Legal Representation
Navigating a contested divorce without skilled legal representation can put your rights at risk. At Jayson Lutzky, our experienced divorce attorneys specialize in New York family law and are well-versed in the nuances of contested divorce cases. We work tirelessly to protect your interests while advocating for fair resolutions.
Open Communication and Mediation
While it's natural for emotions to run high during a contested divorce, maintaining open communication with your spouse can often lead to more favorable outcomes. Engaging in mediation can facilitate productive discussions and potentially lead to mutually acceptable agreements on critical issues. Our legal team is skilled in negotiation and mediation techniques that can help you find common ground, saving you time, money, and emotional distress.
Thoroughly Evaluate Assets and Liabilities
Equitable distribution in New York means that marital property is divided fairly, though not equally. Identifying and accurately valuing assets and liabilities is essential for safeguarding your financial future. Our team collaborates with financial experts and forensic accountants to ensure no hidden assets are overlooked, protecting your entitlement to a fair share of the marital estate.
Prioritize Your Children's Well-Being
Child custody battles can be some of a contested divorce's most emotionally taxing aspects. At Jayson Lutzky, we understand the importance of prioritizing your children's well-being. Our team is committed to advocating for your parental rights and working toward a custody arrangement that is in the best interests of your children.
Documentation and Evidence Gathering
In a contested divorce, proper documentation is crucial. Maintaining a comprehensive record of relevant information, from financial records to communication logs, can strengthen your case. Our attorneys guide you in gathering and organizing the necessary evidence to support your claims and protect your rights in court.
Don't Underestimate the Power of Preparation
Preparation is key in protecting your rights in a contested divorce. Our legal team meticulously prepares for every aspect of your case, from negotiations to courtroom battles. Being prepared empowers you to present your side of the story convincingly, increasing your chances of achieving a favorable outcome.
Be Mindful of Social Media

Be cautious about what you share online, as your posts and interactions can be used as evidence against you.
