Legal Question in Family Law in New York

I am currently representing myself pro se in my divorce, but I am looking for an attorney. However, in the meantime I have a compliance conference coming up with my spouse and I was curious to know about the rules of discovery in New York civil procedure for matrimonial actions. Mainly, I was wondering:

Do I have to disclose to my spouse all (or any) of the evidence (witnesses, documents, etc.) that I intend to use at trial for my case or do I only have to give this to him if he asks for it through discovery motions?

You should already have disclosed financial information in the form of a net worth statement. Subsequent to that disclosure you must provide information as demanded in discovery demands or as otherwise specified in your preliminary conference order.
