Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey
Is place of separation an issue?
Hi!
Me and my wife are separated for more than 18 months. At the time of separation both of us were NY residents. I am living in NJ for more than a year now. Can I file for divorce in NJ?

Re: Is place of separation an issue?
You are entitled to file for a divorce in New Jersey based upon eighteen months of separation. What matters is that one of you has now resided in this state for at least a year prior to filing the divorce complaint.
Give me a call. I will be glad to be of assistance.
