FAQs
How long does a divorce take in New Jersey?
The length of a divorce depends on whether it is contested. Uncontested divorces may be completed in a few months, while contested cases can take a year or longer, depending on complexity and court scheduling.
Can child support be changed after a divorce?
Yes. Child support may be modified if there is a substantial change in circumstances, such as a change in income, employment status, or a child’s financial needs.
Should I have a lawyer for a restraining order hearing?
While not required, legal-representation is strongly recommended. Restraining order hearings can affect custody, housing, and long-term legal rights, making proper preparation important.
