Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How much does a divorce cost in NJ?
A: Divorce costs vary widely depending on whether the case is contested or uncontested, the complexity of assets involved, and how long negotiations or litigation take. Uncontested divorces are significantly less expensive than contested ones. We offer a free initial consultation for Waldwick residents.
Q: What is collaborative divorce?
A: Collaborative divorce is a structured process where both spouses and their attorneys commit to resolving the divorce outside of court through negotiation. It can be faster, less expensive, and less adversarial than litigation.
Q: Can my spouse and I use the same divorce attorney?
A: No. An attorney can only represent one party in a divorce. However, if both parties have reached agreement on all issues, they can proceed through an uncontested divorce with each having their own attorney review the final documents.
