Re: Restraining order

He has filed a domestic violence complaint, I assume, against you in a name by which you are known. You must deal with this complaint. You can not ignore the complaint unless you wish the temporary restraint to become permanent. You need to hire an attorney.

Call me if you like.

Re: Restraining order

I do not know if this mistake will affect anything or not. I just can not tell.

You have problems with your marriage, and you should talk to a divorce attorney like me and get some advice.

You need to solve some problems in your life and your children's lives, and a divorce is pretty much needed; that is what I understand that you are saying.

Employment, income to pay the family's expenses, is an issue.

You have kids: custody and vistation, and child support are issues.

Child support and college tuition needs to be paid. Measured in tens of thousand of dollars.

You probably have a house and some money saved. You probably have a pension plan; maybe your spouse has a pension plan.

You need to see a decent, experienced divorce attorney located reasonably near you, and have the attorney to review your situation carefully with you, and give you some guidance. A good attorney could save you thousands of dollars and a great deal of heartache, make your life more manageable, and reduce the harm to the kids. When choosing an attorney, make sure it is someone whose personality works for you, someone you can work with.

If you would like, give me a call; I am in northern New Jersey right across the street from the Bergen County Courthouse in Hackensack. I will be happy to discuss this with you; the telephone consultation will be free.
