I do not know of any agency set up for that purpose.

However, sexually assaulting a child is a horrible crime, and would be a very clear reason to get a divorce.

It is MUCH easier to get a divorce with the assistance of an attorney. You may want to ask Legal Aid in your area.

If you would like, give me a call; I am in Hackensack (northern New Jersey). I will be happy to discuss

this with you; a brief telephone consultation will be free.

My contact information can be obtained from the links below, just click on the Attorney Profile link. Let my secretary know you found me through LawGuru.

exact facts of your situation, including facts which you have not mentioned in your question, may completely change the result for your situation.

Re: Legal Assistance

You seem to be asking whether there is a group that will provide an attorney based on the violence against your child by the father. There are domestic violence groups who will provide an attorney which will eventually have to be paid. There should be such a group in Bergen County. You might call information or the domestic violence office at the court house.

Call me if you like.

You should contact DYFS, and have DFS intervene.

DYFS has an 800 number. I believe you can obtain the DYFS' number by calling information.
