Every person has the right to have a child. That right is inalienable and irrevocable. A child custody order, to some extent, interferes with a person’s right to raise their children. Child custody can be joint, sole with parenting time granted to the noncustodial parent, or some other arrangement. The New Jersey legislature in 9:2-4 mandates a judge to analyze several factors before reaching a determination. The factors are concerned with how the parents get along with each other and their children, their employment situation, living situation, and any other issue the court deems relevant. After analyzing those factors, the court makes a custody order in the best interest of the child in question.

Custody orders are not necessarily final and can be revisited if a change in circumstance arises.

Having a child comes with a tremendous responsibility that falls upon both parents. A child’s parents have an obligation to raise their children into adulthood showing them love, care, compassion, and teaching them right from wrong and so forth. Parents also have a duty to care for their children financially. Consequently, the noncustodial parent pays the custodial parent child support. A judge arrives at the child support figure after applying New Jersey’s child support guidelines to the facts of the case.

As with child custody, child support orders can be amended from time to time as the needs of the children and other circumstances change.

Getting divorced is relatively simple in New Jersey. If one spouse no longer wishes to be married, then that spouse can file a petition based on irreconcilable differences in Superior Court. The judge will grant a divorce if the parties have lived apart for longer than six months and there is no chance of them reconciling.

The challenging, and most contentious, an element of a divorce, after child custody and support, is property division. Marital property is usually divided equitably, and property that was brought into the marriage as separate property and remained separate will revert to the original owner. Examples of marital property are the real property owned by the couple before the divorce, bank accounts, pensions, retirement accounts, intellectual property, and marital debt.

Whether alimony should be granted and if so, the amount and duration is another highly contentious issue. Alimony, or maintenance payments as they are sometimes called, seeks to keep the parties in the same financial position as when they were married. Issues surrounding alimony are very complicated and require the assistance of competent and experienced counsel to resolve.
