Grounds For Divorce in New Jersey

In New Jersey, both fault and no-fault grounds for divorce are valid.

Fault grounds imply that one of the parties is to blame for the marital misconduct that is pointed out in the petition for divorce. All of the following fault-based grounds for divorce must be proven before the court: adultery, cruelty or domestic violence, willful abandonment for at least one year, drug/alcohol addiction, institutionalization for mental illness/insanity for at least two years, imprisonment for at least 18 months, and deviant sexual behavior without the partner's consent.

The only no-fault ground for divorce in New Jersey is separation (living separate and apart without cohabitation) for at least 18 months. This ground for divorce doesn't have to be proven because it is assumed that no one is to blame.

Truly the easiest and quickest way to get divorce forms completed. My to-be-ex and I are fortunate enough to still be friendly, so it was a breeze to get through each question.

When I filed for my divorce, NJ Online Divorce called me in just about an hour after I filed my application. They gave me a friendly reminder that I would have to wait 2 days for my forms to be ready for download. They were even able to answer my questions about the filing process at my local court.

I anticipated stress and hours of time filling out paperwork and having to follow up with the county court. So far, this company has been remarkable not only in providing forms but clear one-on-one instructions on how to proceed. Really remarkable, I put this off for over ten years and am very pleased to be moving forward.
