- Q. how to get custody established with a civil order that's in place ?
- A: Thank you for your question. It sounds like there are several variables in your matter. A consent order for civil restraints is generally not entered without the consent of both parties. That being said, the best thing to do is have a consultation with an experienced family law attorney who can gather additional information from you and provide advice tailored to your situation.
- Q. How much child support should I be getting?
- A: Thank you for your question. Since your ex-husband is being evasive, you can force the issue and make him produce his tax returns provided it is in your original Marital Settlement Agreement by filing a motion. You can also include in the motion a request to recalculate child support. There are many factors that go into calculating child support, and additional information would be required from you to do so. Your best option is to consult with an experienced family law attorney who can give you your options and file a motion on your behalf if that is the option you choose to pursue.
- Q. Can alimony stop if your ex has been living with another man for 5 years. She tells people they are married.
- A: Hi, thank you for your question. I can see why this is very frustrating. In NJ, alimony can be reduced or terminated if the party receiving it can be shown to be "cohabitating" which means they have a shared financial life. They do not have to be officially living together, and many times both people maintain separate residences. You can seek relief by filing a motion. There are 8 factors that determine cohabitation. You don't have to prove all 8, but a Judge must consider them in deciding whether the relationship is the equivalent of a marriage. The factors are; intermingled finances, shared responsibility for living expenses, recognition of the relationship within the couple's family and social circle (social media posts are a good way to show this), living together and frequency of contact, shared household chores, whether the alimony recipient has an enforceable promise of support from another individual, the length of the relationship, any additional relevant evidence. This all comes from the Alimony Reform Act of 2014. There are a variety of ways to prove each of those factors. The best thing to do is to consult with an experienced family law attorney who will know exactly how to present your circumstances to the court to get the best outcome possible. You can also request counsel fees as part of your motion due to her intentional actions in trying to conceal her situation from you. There are no guarantees, but it is an appropriate request. Good luck!
