New Jersey Divorce

The more you educate yourself about New Jersey divorce issues and the available resources, the easier it will be to make the best decisions possible throughout the legal process and beyond. We provide a directory of divorce professions, including lawyers, paralegals, mediators, and divorce recovery coaches to name a few.

And we have resources to help you out if you choose this method. You'll also find out how to access the divorce laws and child support tools for NJ, look up domestic abuse hotlines and shelters throughout the state, plus find area support meetings to help you recover.

Getting divorced is one of the most difficult life challenges that you may face. Instead of choosing the destruction of attorney-driven litigation, couples have the option of resolving their case in a more civilized manner. Mediation focuses on constructive resolution of divorce issues and allows people to maintain control over the outcome, retain their privacy, and stay out of court.

We work with our clients to educate them on the issues that need to be resolved in their divorce, and help them negotiate a fair settlement, as well as provide emotional support along the way. In the end, your divorce will be more efficient and child focused.

Our all-inclusive, flat-fee divorce mediation services enable client couples to complete all of the steps to divorce peacefully, cost-effectively, and without lawyers if they choose.

 Magnum Investigations logo

This Premier Investigative Agency Specializes in Video Surveillance for Investigations into Cheating, Child Custody, and Alimony cases. There is no better proof than Video which provides Peace of Mind & Closure. This is not your typical run-of-the-mill "PI company"; these companies get caught by the very person they attempt to follow. Magnum Investigators remain undetected because they utilize two investigators who work at the same time but in separate cars. This elite agency will cost more than its competition but for obvious reasons; they are the best in the industry.


PARENTING CLASSES

Parents must attend a Parents’ Education Program in all divorce cases in which issues concerning minor children are involved. To find out about classes in your area contact the court administrator. Some New Jersey counties allow online parenting classes, but it is best to contact your county court administrator prior to taking such a class.
