Contested Divorce — Let's Stick to Business
We help clients see divorce as a business transaction. Setting aside emotions is hard after everything that's happened, but it will make the process quicker, cheaper and less stressful. Divorce lawyer Anthony Carbone uses his 20 years of family law experience to get to the heart of disputes for workable settlements.
If the other spouse is stubborn or spiteful, Mr. Carbone is a tough litigator who can fight fire with fire. In negotiations or in court, he will stand up for your best interests:
- Equitable Division of Property and Debts
- Pensions and Retirement Funds (QDROs)
- Alimony and Medical Insurance
- Custody and Child Support
Property division may involve trade-offs of assets, valuations of a business or real estate, or selling the marital home. Anthony Carbone won't let your spouse take advantage of you.
Uncontested Divorce — You Still Need Legal Advice
You can get a simple no-fault divorce in Hudson County in less than 12 weeks. But you need to take your rights seriously. "Do-it-yourself" packages for uncontested divorce are just that — you do all the work. Also, once you file the papers, you waive all rights to alimony or property. For a reasonable fee, Anthony Carbone can draw up the papers to protect your legal interests and help ensure the process goes smoothly.
Alimony (Spousal Support)
Alimony is based on many factors: a big difference in earning power, a career put on hold to raise children, length of marriage, or a spouse's age or disability. Mr. Carbone can (a) negotiate the monthly amount, (b) negotiate a lump-sum payout or trade-off, or (c) represent you in court.
Palimony
You can't get a divorce if you were never legally married. But if you and your spouse lived together in New Jersey, or there was the promise of support, implied or express, you can still be awarded ongoing support payments. We can negotiate or litigate palimony issues for unmarried couples — division of assets and, in some cases, ongoing monetary support.
