Frequently Asked Questions Regarding Divorce in North Brunswick
- Will I have to go to court for a divorce in North Brunswick? Not always. Many divorces are resolved through negotiation or mediation. Court involvement is typically needed for contested issues.
- How is property divided during divorce? New Jersey follows equitable distribution, meaning marital assets are divided fairly, not necessarily equally.
- How is child custody determined? Custody decisions are based on the best interests of the child, based on each parent’s ability to provide stability, relationship with the child, and history of abuse or safety concerns.
- Can a divorce agreement be modified later? Yes. Certain aspects, such as custody, parenting time, or support, may be modified if there is a significant change in circumstances.
