If I divorce my husband is he entitled to any of my NJ State monthly pension income?

Bari Zell Weinberger
Answered by attorney Bari Zell Weinberger
Divorce lawyer at Weinberger Divorce Family Law Group, LLC
Thank you for your question. Generally speaking, upon divorce a spouse is entitled to half of the “marital coverture” of any retirement plans. This means the income added to the plan from the date of marriage to the date of complaint. Each plan can be a little different in their rules, and pensions are tricky because they are defined benefit plans, not defined contribution plans like 401(k)s. When the tie comes to split any retirement assets, lawyers will consult or engage an actuary. During the negotiation phase of a divorce, parties are allowed to agree that one person gets a larger share of the equity in the home, or some other asset, in exchange for waiving rights to the pension.  You have options, but the best course of action is to consult with an experienced matrimonial attorney, who can advise you based on your unique situation.

I've been married 10 years and I have a house that inherited from my dad.

Diana L. Anderson
Answered by attorney Diana L. Anderson
Divorce lawyer at Diana L. Anderson
Assets that you inherit, that are not marital assets, are not subject to equitable distribution, meaning those assets are not subject to division in a divorce.  The asset would have to be kept in your own name and never commingled with marital assets.  Good Luck.

Do I need an updated order reduced to judgment or does the original judgment stand and still apply?

John W. Havins
Answered by attorney John W. Havins (Unclaimed Profile)
Divorce lawyer at Havins & Associates, PC
You asked:  Do I need an updated order reduced to judgment or does the original judgment stand and still apply?Additional Details:I was granted a judgment in 2005 as part of a divorce. It was to enforce my prenup. The prenup stated 1/7 up front and quarterly payments thereafter until 2014. Since no monies were paid by the debtor and several years have now passed, what do I need to have updated in order to show the current amount owed to me? Monmouth County Court house said a motion. Trenton said two diferent answeres: Amend the order, or get a new order reduced to judgement. Thank you in advance for your help. I am a Michigan attorney, and strongly recommend that you seek the advice of a local attorney.  I may be able to give you some guidance, however.  I think you asking what to do if your ex failed to pay for several years, and you want to collect the arrearage.  It is not clear if your ex owes you alimony or some other form of payment.  In Michigan, I would file a Motion for an Order to Show Cause why he should not be held in contempt of court for failure to pay.  Additionally, I would seek an income withholding order for all future payments.  Finally, I would consider having the amount he owes you in the future reduce to a present value and have the arrearage and the present value of future payment reduced to a judgment that could be collected as any other judgment, such as garnishment or seizure of property.

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
