Frequently Asked Questions

Is New Jersey a "50/50" state for dividing assets in a divorce?

No, New Jersey is an "equitable distribution" state. This means marital property is divided in a way that is fair, which may or may not be an equal 50/50 split. A court considers many factors, including the length of the marriage and each spouse's financial situation.
