Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey

Pre marital property

I married 6/2001 to my live in girlfriend of twelve years. She began having an affair 6 months later. I filed for divorce in 12/2002. Is she entitled to anything that was mine before the marriage? Is there a such thing as common law marriage in NJ?

Re: Pre marital property

There is no common law marriage but it is possible for her to claim that she is the beneficiary of representations by you to either share in your premarital assets and/or support her. You should call me at 800 273 7933 to discuss your situation.
