Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey
Legal Separation/No fault Divorce
Is being legally separated for 18 months required for divorce mediation? I thought a new law had been passed in New Jersey.

There is a recent law in New Jersey which permits divorce based on irreconcilable differences which have persisted for six months.
Call me if you like.

Re: Legal Separation/No fault Divorce
the new law is 'irreconcillable differences.'
if you do mediate, it is still a VERY good idea to have a divorce attorney look over the agreement for you and advise you.
Mediation does solve a lot of divorces; I hope that works for you.

As the other attorneys said, its now 6 months, but I wouldn't even worry about that. There are plenty of other causes of action that are easy to satisfy.
My initial consultations are always free, so call me at 732/247/3340 to discuss your case.
