How is property divided and custody and visitation determined?
December 15, 2023
Many factors will impact how your assets are to be distributed after the divorce and how child support, visitation, and parenting decisions will be made. For example, the equitable distribution criteria (N.J.S.A. 2A: 34-23.1), uses the duration of the marriage or civil union, the age and overall health of the parties involved, any prior agreements, the income earning capacity of both parties, and many other factors before issuing a 50-50 split of assets after a divorce. Similarly, some laws govern how child custody is to be determined (both physical/residential custody and legal custody, both of which are different things) and how parenting time, child support, and the wishes of the children involved are to be considered.
