Which state to file for divorce

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson

no - you will not file in New Jersey.  You will file in the state in which you live, provided you meet New York residency requirements.  In New Jersey you must live in the state, and live here for one year prior to filing.  If you have lived in New York for more than one year chances are you have met the residency rquirements and could file from New York.

What does notice to produce interrogatories and an acknowledgment of service mean

Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Divorce lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
A notice to produce is a notice that lists certain things that the other party must either produce or answer a question.  An example of something that might need to be produced in a divorce matter is proof of insurance, or a bank statement or car title.  An acknowledgment of service is something that you sign to indicate that you received the documents that were sent to you.

Am I entitled to divorce alimony?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney Vincent James Bernabei (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Vincent J. Bernabei, LLC
Maybe. Here are some of the factors the court will consider in deciding whether to award spousal support. The duration of the marriage; (ii) The age of the parties; (iii) The health of the parties, including their physical, mental and emotional condition; (iv) The standard of living established during the marriage; (v) The relative income and earning capacity of the parties, recognizing that the wage earner's continuing income may be a basis for support distinct from the income that the supported spouse may receive from the distribution of marital property; (vi) A party's training and employment skills; (vii) A party's work experience; (viii) The financial needs and resources of each party; (ix) The tax consequences to each party; (x) A party's custodial and child support responsibilities; and (xi) Any other factors the court deems just and equitable.
