Q: 7 year marriage. I will like to ask for alimony because his verbal abuse and mistreatment have left me mentally ill.
A: David's Answer: Most likely MA as NY would not have jurisdiction over him, unless he consented to NY having jurisdiction or you were able to serve him with the papers in NY. For a definitive opinion, however, I suggest that you schedule consultations with both a MA attorney as well as a Westchester Co. Divorce lawyer. -- David Bliven, Westchester Divorce attorney (www.blivenlaw.net)
