We have extensive experience in identifying and focusing on the “real” issues in family disputes, in gathering the facts necessary to evaluate the issues, and in presenting clients’ positions in negotiations, mediation, and before the courts. Our litigation of family and matrimonial issues also involves appeals, as well as enforcement and post-judgment motion practice.
- Child SupportDivorce is never easy; there are numerous factors involved in the dissolution of a marriage. If you have children, your primary concern will be where your children will live, who they will spend their time with, and whether or not you or your spouse will be required to pay child support. These issues are often highly emotionally charged, and you may find yourself involved in a legal battle over custody, visitation, parental rights, child support, and related issues.

- Legal SeparationRegardless of the length of your marriage or the assets you have accumulated during that time, you will need to consider the division of property in the event of a divorce. In New Jersey, any property, assets, or debts acquired by either spouse or acquired together during the marriage are considered “marital property,” with some exceptions. All marital property is subject to division in the event of a legal separation or divorce. The state divides property in a manner it deems “fair,” but this does not necessarily mean it will be divided equally.
