Pistol Permit Attorneys in Hudson Valley
Protecting Your Rights & Fighting for Your Firearm Privileges
In 2013, the New York Secure Ammunition and Firearms Enforcement Act, also known as the NY SAFE Act, was placed into law. The SAFE Act is a comprehensive set of laws which has drastically changed the way New York handles ammunition and guns. This law expanded the government’s ability to suspend or revoke your pistol permit while also drastically reducing your rights. Under the SAFE Act, with limited cause, the government can suspend or revoke your pistol permit and subject you to a hearing in which you can permanently lose your pistol permit.

Commonly Asked Questions
-
How to Get a Quick Divorce in NY
Every case will have its own unique set of circumstances that can impact the outcome of a divorce. If you have an uncontested divorce, a scenario where you and your spouse have few assets or don't share any children, the divorce could be settled in only a few months. On average, an uncontested divorce case could be resolved in just a few months. A contested divorce, on the other hand, could last between nine months and up to a year, possibly more for very complex cases. Again, it will depend on factors such as custody, property division, or alimony to be settled.
-
Is There a Waiting Period for Getting a Divorce in New York?
No. In other states, the parties must wait for a certain period of time before getting a divorce. Also known as “cooling-off” periods, mandatory waiting periods are meant to give the parties time to think about whether they really want a divorce and to preserve the possibility of reconciling before spouses permanently end their marriage. However, New York law does not impose a mandatory waiting period for divorces.
-
How Is Property Divided in a Divorce in New York?
In New York, marital property is equitably distributed between the couple. An “equitable” division of marital property doesn’t necessarily mean that property is “equally” divided. Instead, the court will consider certain factors to determine how exactly to divide marital assets upon divorce. All property that the couple acquired during their marriage qualifies as a marital property upon divorce. An asset that a party a party obtained before getting married or after separating from their spouse to get a divorce qualifies as the acquiring party’s separate property and is not subject to equitable distribution.
-
Can I Date While Separated Before Divorce?
A couple remains legally married until the court finalizes a divorce. Furthermore, adultery is considered a fault-based ground for divorce. Therefore, you risk committing adultery by dating someone before the court finalizes your divorce. As a result, the court can consider this against you during divorce proceedings, such as when determining the equitable distribution of marital assets, alimony, and other issues.
