Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey

Re: Divorce

He could indeed fight her. He will have to come here to do it, certainly, as to assets located in New Jersey.

And she is fully able to fight back, showing the Court that he has been gone for 10 years and has not put a dime into the things that he now wants to take half of.

How long since the youngest child graduated college? Does the husband owe money for Child Support and college? now is the time to pursue that, not after the divorce.

Does she have an attorney? If the attorney can not answer these questions, she should fire that lawyer and hire someone who can. That is the attorney's job.

If she does not have an attorney, she should hire an attorney immediately.

I recently concluded a divorce for a lovely lady with two adult children; she and her husband were both from Colombia, and the husband had real estate in Medellin and another location.

Re: Divorce

In a divorce everything acquired during the marriage, except for inheritance; items acquired to the marriage and gifts, is subject to distribution between the parties. The question is when the marriage factually ended. It could be argued that it ended ten years ago because the parties have not lived as husband and wife since that time. Maybe not.

Call me if you like.
