It is simply one less issue to agonize over in what can often be a painful and emotional process ,” said Alison Keil, Divorce Attorney with Keil & Siegel, L.L.P. While signing the new legislation into law on Sunday, August 15th, Governor Paterson noted "finally, New York has brought its divorce laws into the 21st century. . . These bills fix a broken process that produced extended and contentious litigation, poisoned feelings between the parties and harmed the interests of those persons -- too often women -- who did not have sufficient financial wherewithal to protect their legal rights."
