Divorce Information

Jersey City and Newark, New Jersey


 

Divorce Lawyer Union CityDivorce is one of the most difficult, traumatic events a couple or family can face. With divorce typically come uncertainty, anxiety, difficult decisions, and major life changes. When children are involved, the stress is only compounded because the couple divorcing knows they must make decisions that will be best for their children, and not for themselves.

Divorce and Child Custody Issues

 

When it comes to child custody issues, our investigation will attempt to determine the following:

 

  • Who is the better parent?
  • Which parent may be interfering with the other’s visitation rights?
  • Which parent will look out for the best interests of the child?
  • Is one parent trying to “brainwash” the child against the other parent?

 

When determining custodial issues, the courts will often seek the opinion of unbiased healthcare and educational professionals to help them decide what is best for the child or children of divorce. The investigation may include psychological evaluations and interviews with other family members or caretakers who have had contact with the children.

 

In some cases, a “Law Guardian” is appointed on behalf of young children; this is an independent lawyer who is charged with representing the child’s best interests. If the child is old enough to state which parent he/she wants to live with, the Law Guardian will make that known to the court. If a child has reached the age of 13 or 14 (varies from state to state), the child’s wishes will be considered in the court’s final decision.
