How to Fight a New Jersey Removal Case
1. I have been divorced for five years, and my ex-wife wants to move to another state. Can I block my ex-wife from moving out of New Jersey with my two kids? In this day and age, it is reality that many people hate to live in New Jersey. In my opinion the major reason why people hate to live here is because of the very high property taxes which are the highest in the United States. These high property taxes simply make it very hard for a middle class person to survive in New Jersey. The rents are inflated because the landlords have to pay these high property taxes. Moreover, in New Jersey a months’ worth of property taxes equals or even exceed a monthly mortgage payment for many other U.S. citizens who live in a less expensive state. Therefore, for a newly divorced person the prospect of home ownership is only be a far-fetched dream.

Under these circumstances, where there is a ten-year or longer marriage, a Judge must presume that alimony will be indefinite in nature, meaning that it will continue in effect until a change in circumstances for instance, an increase in the dependent spouse’s income or re-marriage or retirement or loss of employment by the spouse paying alimony.

Martial Tort FAQ's
What is a marital tort? Basically, a tort is a civil wrong, for which the court will provide a remedy in the form of an action for damages. Torts may be intentional, negligent or reckless.

Domestic Voilence FAQ's

A "victim of domestic violence" also includes any person, regardless of age, who has been subjected to domestic violence by a person with whom the victim has a child, or with whom the victim anticipates having a child, if one of the parties is pregnant.

Child Support FAQ's
1. What is the child support? Every child is entitled to support from his parents. The New Jersey child support guidelines are based on the theory that child support is determined in proportion to the parent’s income and assets as well as the child’s needs. All parents, whether natural or adoptive, have a financial obligation to support their child. This obligation continues even if the parties have divorced. A support award can be increased or decreased as circumstances may arise. In order for a party to change the amount of child support, the moving party must file a motion with the court, and establish a “change of circumstances.”
