Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey

Re: Spouse seeking out-of state relocation

I don't see how you are obligated to do anything.

Re: Spouse seeking out-of state relocation

In general, when married people do not want to go along with what their spouses want to do, they get divorces. That seems to be your choice in this case.

Keep in mind that this advice is given based on the little bit of information that you have

provided in your question. My advice may change based on other information. Further, no one

can rely on advice from an attorney who has not been retained. You cannot rely on this advice

because we have not personally met and you have not retained me as an attorney. If you have not

already done so, you should immediately meet with an attorney for a full consultation before you

take any further steps. You may feel free to call me to discuss this matter in more detail. If you

do so, mention Law Guru and your first one hour of time will be free. Good luck! Rob Gleaner

Re: Spouse seeking out-of state relocation

You are free to leave and get what you are entitled to under the laws of the State.

If a divorce is not what you want then counseling may be appropriate but you cannot be forced to move somewhere else.

As yours is a long term marriage, you should consult with counsel about your rights.
