- Child SupportCollege Expense Contribution: In New Jersey, our Courts will direct that both parents contribute to the costs of college, and also make a child responsible for some of their costs. This is a fact-sensitive issue, which will include discussions as to continuation of child support while a child is attending college.
- Child Custody and VisitationChild custody and child support matters, including enforcement: Custody agreements address both legal custody (the rights and responsibilities of each party) and physical custody (where the child will reside, their care, and the sharing of time between parents). Parents working together are in the best position to determine these issues, as they know and love their children. Litigation involving the children is usually contentious and often results in judicial determinations that neither parent is happy with. The best interests of the child are paramount, and our Courts believe that it is in the best interests of children to have as much exposure and contact with each parent as is possible.
