Oceanport Divorce

Call 800-537-4154 For Your Consultation. Meeting Location By Appointment Only.

One might be tempted to believe that the scenic waters and other features that made Oceanport the fourth-best place to live (according to a 2008 New Jersey Monthly article) means that divorces and custody battles are uncommon in the borough. Sadly, this is not the case. No divorce or child custody proceeding is truly “pleasant,” however those individuals who find themselves needing to resolve their differences and disagreements through such a proceeding often find that the process is easier, more understandable, and that better results are obtained when assistance from an experienced Oceanport family law firm like Aretsky Law Group, P.C. is obtained.

“Family law” is a term that encompasses much more than simply divorce. While Aretsky Law Group, P.C. can certainly help Oceanport residents who have been served with a divorce petition or who are looking to legally dissolve their marriages, the firm is also able to assist with:

• Child custody and child support: Some of the most contentious family law hearings involve the care and custody of children of parties who are separated or divorced. New Jersey law establishes a clear formula that courts must follow when calculating child support, but these same laws give courts a large amount of discretion in setting a custody and visitation arrangement that is in the child’s best interests.
• Adoption: It is common for stepparents to want to adopt their stepchildren. This can have certain consequences for the children in the event the stepparent and/or the natural parent were to perish. These proceedings can also be prolonged and challenging if the child’s natural parent objects to the adoption.
• Spousal support: Spousal support (also known as alimony) is appropriate when one spouse needs financial assistance from the other spouse so that he or she can learn a new trade, relocate to a new residence or otherwise reestablish him- or herself. The availability of alimony is also controlled by state statutes, so having an attorney familiar with these statutes can help increase the chances you will be successful in requesting or opposing alimony.

Alternatively, our skill and resources can be useful even if your proceedings are already underway.
