New Albany law firm has San Francisco, NYC offices

Law Firm News

Ronald D'Alessandro has started a law firm, Keohane & D'Alessandro PLLC with offices in San Francisco, New York City and Albany, N.Y. "My partner is in San Francisco," said D'Alessandro. D'Alessandro, 35, met his law partner, Stephen Keohane about seven years ago when Keohane was counsel for IBM. "He was one of my best clients," D'Alessandro said. A senior associate, Darrell Pogue, is based in New York City.

D'Alessandro was one of the founders of the Albany intellectual property firm Hoffman, Warnick & D'Alessandro LLC. Michael Hoffman, Spencer Warnick and D'Alessandro started the firm about nine years ago when they met while working at another firm, Schmeiser Olsen & Watts LLP in Latham.

Last week, it was announced that the firm was rebranding, calling itself Hoffman Warnick LLC. D'Alessandro said he enjoyed starting up another firm.

"I didn't realize how much fun it was to be back at the grass roots," he said. "Each day can bring something different. You never know what the next day will bring. It can bring headaches but also a lot of interesting challenges."

It took a week for the furniture to arrive at his new office at 1881 Western Ave.

Grounds for Divorce in Ohio - Sylkatis Law, LLC

A divorce in Ohio is filed when there is typically “fault” by one of the parties and party not at “fault” seeks to end the marriage. A court in Ohio may grant a divorce for the following reasons:
• Willful absence of the adverse party for one year
• Adultery
• Extreme cruelty
• Fraudulent contract
• Any gross neglect of duty
• Habitual drunkenness
• Imprisonment in a correctional institution at the time of filing the complaint
• Procurement of a divorce outside this state by the other party

Additionally, there are two “no-fault” basis for which a court may grant a divorce:
• When the parties have, without interruption for one year, lived separate and apart without cohabitation
• Incompatibility, unless denied by either party

However, whether or not the the court grants the divorce for “fault” or not, in Ohio the party not at “fault” will not get a bigger slice of the marital property.
