Getting a Divorce in New Jersey: The Basics
To start with, New Jersey is a "no-fault" divorce state. What that means is that the courts will almost never take into account who's to blame or who did what to whom. It also means that if one spouse wants to get a divorce, they can — even if the other doesn't want it.
As for the process itself, one of the most frequent questions our attorneys hear from clients is "How long will it take?" Currently, New Jersey family law courts are essentially under what amounts to a mandate to finish divorce cases within one year from the date they were filed.
"How do differences actually get resolved?" The most ideal results come through reasonable discussion. If that fails, alternative methods of dispute resolution such as mediation can be very productive and far less damaging to everyone concerned. In fact, some New Jersey counties require mediation before couples can exercise their third option: going to court.
We have the requisite experience and skill to protect your rights in any situation.
