Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey
I have two orders from a family court magistrate in NY ordering f my ex-husband to pay for arrears and counsel fees. Totaling close to $60k. The SM is dragging her feet on my request for a judgment so I can put a lien against him. Can I sue him personally in civil court without having to go through the hassles of family court? We also live in different states. I live in NJ and he still lives in NY. What state would I sue him in? Thank you.

Your best bet is to get the judgment you are presenlly pursuing. Filing in New Jersey would be a waste of time because he lives in New York. You need to consult with your New York attorney.
Not sure what the best course of action is. New York court is moving very slow? It may be worth looking at to see if New Jersey court can help you.
I can help you with this. And I will tell you up front what it will cost to do this for you.
