Will Snooki and JWoww need to call in our Bergen County divorce attorney?

October 18, 2012 | by Aretsky Law Group

How soon before JWoww and Snooki end up in divorce court?

“The cast of Jersey Shore might have first come to the attention of American viewers thanks to their wild antics and unapologetic immaturity, but over the past year or so, some of the cast members have begun to grow up quickly. Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi recently got engaged and delivered her first child with boyfriend Jionni LaValle, and now, her BFF Jenni “JWoww” Farley has accepted a proposal from her longtime boyfriend Roger Mathews.

The engagement news was rumored to be coming for months, but to many fans, it was still a bit of a surprise to see it made official. JWoww always seemed a bit more grown-up than her co-stars, but she still had her share of reckless and crazy good times. If all goes according to plan, the fun will continue for she and Roger but ideally, not the whole reckless part.”
