Key Steps In The New Jersey Divorce Process

New Jersey law requires you to submit various forms when filing for divorce, and the process typically follows three basic steps:

• Filing the divorce complaint: The plaintiff (the person initiating the divorce) must file a complaint for divorce in the county where the grounds for divorce occurred, usually the county of residence. You will need to include the grounds for divorce, such as irreconcilable differences or adultery. Once filed, the plaintiff must serve the defendant with the complaint, after which the defendant has 35 days to respond.
• Discovery and settlement: During the discovery phase, both parties exchange financial information and work on resolving issues such as property division, child custody and spousal support. Many couples settle through negotiation, mediation or appearing before an early settlement panel.
• Trial (if necessary): If the parties cannot agree, the case may go to trial. While the courts aim to resolve divorce cases within 12 months, complex cases can extend beyond this timeline.
