Re: child support

Whether you want to Petition for child support, for the first or enforce the child support provisions of your NJ divorce, IF your child lives with you in Long Island, NY, you may file for child support or enforcement, in your local NY Family Court, Pro Se, (ie., w/o an attorney).

Good luck,
