Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey

Child Support Jurisdiction in New Jersey (from another state)

I was divorced in the State of Washington and am currently paying child support through the State of Washington and fully current. I move to New Jersey a year ago and now my ex-wife is trying to have New Jersey take over the jurisdiction of the child support (and of course collect almost double). What can I do? Is that allowed for a court to transfer jurisdiction to another state?

If the child lives in NJ, they can file to transfer the case in NJ. I suggest you get a NJ attorney to help you. Call me at 732/247/3340 to discuss.
