Somerset County Divorce and Family Law

Nestled in the suburbs of New Jersey but close enough to New York to enjoy its cosmopolitan lifestyle, Somerset County has a pace of its own. When family law issues arise in Somerset County, they’re deserving of the same kind of professional legal counsel offered in the neighboring cities. That’s why Somerset County residents turn to Weinberger Law Group for big-city family law attorney services with small-town personal attention.

From Branchburg to Bridgewater, this county has one of the highest per capita income rates in the United States. As such, when divorcing couples need assistance with asset division, child support, child custody, alimony, domestic violence, and other Somerset County family law matters, they instinctively turn to Weinberger Law Group for trusted counsel.

The family law attorneys and mediators at Weinberger Law Group understand firsthand the questions and concerns Somerset County divorcing couples experience. 

Below are just a few examples:  

• Your house in Far Hills is appraised at 1.2 million dollars. How will this be divided in a divorce?
• Through your job, you have both vested and unvested stock options, along with a 401k. Does your spouse have any claim to these assets?
• You live in Manville and have always been the family’s breadwinner. How is spousal support (i.e., alimony) calculated?
• You live in Watchung, but your spouse is moving out of state to be closer to work. How will this affect child custody arrangements?

Regardless of where you live in Somerset County—Rocky Hill to Bernardsville or anywhere in between—the family law issue you encounter will be handled by one of Weinberger Law Group’s accomplished attorneys, who will serve as your guide and advocate in the divorce process. Whether that means acting as a neutral party mediator during private mediations or aggressively litigating your case to trial, when it comes to Somerset County, New Jersey family law representation, you can expect nothing but the best from Weinberger Law Group.

Somerset County Divorce Litigation vs. Mediation

While many attorneys are barred in the state of New Jersey and offer family law as a service, their qualifications cannot compare to those held by the attorneys at Weinberger Law Group. In a firm that devotes 100% of its time exclusively to family law, and holds the highest rating possible from Martindale-Hubble, you’ll be represented by a New Jersey divorce attorney who not only understands the law on a statewide level, but can seamlessly navigate the Somerset County court system.

Weinberger Law Group handles a broad range of Somerset County family law matters including divorce, child custody, domestic partnership/civil unions, domestic violence, pre- and post-nuptial agreements, and more. From simpler, uncontested divorces that can settle through mediation to highly charged, contested divorces headed to the courtroom, your attorney will approach your Somerset County family law matter with care, making informed decisions that benefit your case. The firm is headed by Bari Zell Weinberger, who is certified by the Supreme Court of New Jersey as a matrimonial law attorney. Ms. Weinberger is the associate author of the New Jersey Family Law Practice, a five-volume treatise relied on by attorneys and family law judges all over the state.

In an ideal setting, mediation is the approach to a peaceful resolution; however, the reality is that not all Somerset County divorces end amicably. Weinberger Law Group is fully prepared to take your divorce or family law matter to trial, aggressively litigating it as needed. In and around Somerset County, the firm’s family law attorneys have solidified relations with the community and local court judges, including:
