New Jersey Divorce Basics

If you’re ready to file for a New Jersey divorce, you or your current spouse must meet the residency requirements to qualify for a divorce. This means either of you must have resided in New Jersey for at least one year. There are some exceptions, and if you have questions, it’s worth discussing the process with a divorce lawyer.

You start by filing a Complaint for Divorce with the Superior Court, which must be submitted in the county where either one of you lives. You include basic information about the grounds for the divorce. Then, your spouse receives formal notice through service of process, and they have 35 days within which to respond.

When Both Parties Agree

If both parties agree to the divorce, you have an uncontested divorce, and you prepare a written settlement. However, if either party disputes the divorce terms, the court often requires you to participate in mediation or formal hearings to resolve the disputed divorce terms.

Since you might have to fight for what’s important to you in a divorce proceeding, it’s helpful to have an attorney by your side throughout the process. An attorney can:

• Confirm you meet the NJ residency requirements
• Prepare your divorce paperwork and ensure accuracy
• Properly serve your spouse with the Complaint for Divorce
• Use their negotiation skills to handle all unresolved divorce issues
• Prepare and respond to all divorce pleadings
• Ensure you’ve protected your interests throughout the divorce process

Each divorce is unique, and your attorney can ensure that your goals are met at every step. Divorces can take time to resolve, and if your spouse digs their heels in and things become contentious, your attorney can ensure your individual interests are considered.

New Jersey Divorce Timelines

Sometimes, people wonder how long their divorce may take. While each divorce matter is unique, an attorney can discuss how long your specific divorce may take. Sometimes, divorce proceedings stall because of:

• A backlog of other divorce matters in your county
• One party delays providing the required financial documents to their spouse
• Schedules conflict when setting up hearings or mediation dates

A knowledgeable attorney can help ensure your divorce moves through the court system efficiently.
