Child support in New Jersey depends on your combined income with your co-parent.

If you fall below the state's mandated income threshold, your support amount is calculated using the child support guidelines.

If you are above that threshold, the court instead considers a broader set of statutory factors.

A divorce in New Jersey generally takes around twelve months if you go through full litigation.

If you need to move faster and mediation is not resolving your case, arbitration is an option, where a privately hired arbitrator functions like a judge and helps you reach a decision more quickly.

That path can significantly shorten the overall timeline for your case.

If you think your case may be contested, start gathering documents early, and focus on what's actually relevant to your dispute.

A contested custody case calls for different evidence than a contested financial case, so target your effort accordingly.

If you and your spouse can't resolve some or all of your issues, your case moves to trial, the last resort in New Jersey divorce law.
