Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey

Re: mental abuse

please stay out of your daughter's divorce.

please tell her that she should call an experienced divorce attorney immediately and get some advice.

Re: mental abuse

I don't see any criminal charges here. However, she does need a good divorce attorney to handle this.

My initial consultations are always free, so have her call me at 732/247/3340 and we can discuss her situation.

Re: mental abuse

The conduct is probably not a state or federal offense but it may raise a question as to fitness as a parent and result in Court action.

Your daughter should consult counsel to determine her rights and the best course of action.

Re: mental abuse

Talking to children about a failed marriage is not considered 'abuse' by any state or federal statute. In the course of a divorce, there is generally a requirement by the courts that parents do not make any disparaging remarks about the other or alienate affection.

Both parties would benefit from a divorce oriented parenting class.

Re: mental abuse

It is abuse but whether it is criminal is a matter of degree. A civil court which believe he engaged in such conduct might bar him from visiting with the child.

Call me if you like.
