Pro Tip:
Avoid providers of New York uncontested divorce documents that limit the documents they will provide to only the "documents required by New York State" and do not specifically state that they will provide "all required documents" to file for and finalize your divorce.
Some providers only disclose in their Terms of Service that you have the responsibility to obtain any form the local court requires to be filed that is not provided by the state and you have to fill it out yourself.
If you're going to pay someone to prepare your divorce papers, it's reasonable to expect them to prepare every document required to file for and finalize the divorce.

What is an uncontested
divorce?
What is an uncontested divorce?
An uncontested divorce is the least expensive and least stressful way to get divorced. It is a legal process in which both spouses agree to dissolve their marriage and also
come to an agreement on related issues such as child custody, child support, visitation, property division, alimony, and other matters related to the divorce. In an uncontested divorce,
both spouses cooperate and work together amicably to reach a consensus on these issues, and their mutual agreement(s) are then presented to the court for approval by a judge. Because there are no disputes to litigate in court
an uncontested divorce can be filed without hiring an attorney.
In contrast, a contested divorce occurs in situations where spouses cannot reach a mutual agreement on one or more of these issues, which will require legal proceedings in court before a judge.
In a contested divorce, each spouse typically hires an attorney to represent them and each spouse provides testimony in court (which can be very stressful) to support their position on any disputed issues.
The judge will make binding legal decisions to resolve their disputes. Consequently, an uncontested divorce represents a quicker, more cost-effective, and less emotionally taxing alternative when compared to a contested divorce.
