Emotions run high in any divorce, especially if children are involved. Even if you and your spouse agree to all of the terms in your divorce, it can be hard to know whether you have crossed every "t" and dotted every "i." An attorney can help you work through all the issues necessary for you to move forward.
At the Law Offices of Gary T. Jodha, we can answer your questions, advise you on your divorce options and provide you with skilled representation in your divorce. From our office in Essex County, our attorneys handle contested and uncontested divorces in New Jersey and in New York.
Elements of a Divorce
Our divorce attorneys will work with you through every facet of your divorce, including:
- Division of property: In a divorce, marital property is divided equitably between the parties. We can help you value and divide all types of assets and debts, including real estate, business interests, antiques and retirement assets.
- Child custody and visitation: Different types of custody are available to suit the needs of you and your family. We can help you develop a custody arrangement and visitation schedule that are in the best interests of your child.
- Child support: The child support guidelines provide a formula for determining child support based on the income of both parents. Our attorneys can tell you what you can expect and help you see an exception or add-on to child support if your family has special needs.
- Alimony: Either during or after a divorce, one spouse may need help getting back on his or her feet. We can help you with permanent alimony or temporary types of alimony such as rehabilitative, limited duration and reimbursement alimony.
- Domestic violence: Our lawyers represent clients on both sides of domestic violence: victims and those accused of abuse. We can help you with protective orders and represent you in hearings.
