Family Law

Family law in New Jersey covers a wide variety of proceedings. This includes issues of divorce, alimony, equitable distribution and, for married and unmarried parents alike, custody, parenting time and child support. 

​

There are times when these matters can be straightforward, such as an uncontested divorce, or two parents who want to share the time with their children equally. There are other issues, of course, that quickly become complicated and contentious. This could be a fight over what assets are subject to equitable distribution in a divorce. It could be a situation that calls for an in depth analysis of custody when two parents cannot agree on what is best for their son or daughter.

​

Regardless of the circumstances, dealing with family related issues is often difficult. Determining the value of child support, alimony or assets for equitable distribution is hard enough. Matters related to children, particularly when it comes to custody and parenting time, can be all the more complex and stressful. Contact Christopher C.
