Compassionate Advocacy for You and Your Family
The attorneys at Carolann M. Aschoff, P.C., with offices in Jersey City, West Caldwell and Bayonne, represent New Jersey residents in the following areas of their family law practice:
- Divorce - The first question you will hear from a lawyer at our firm is, "How can I help you." That is only the start of our personalized service when you have made the decision to file for divorce.
- Parenting Time/Visitation - At Carolann M. Aschoff, P.C., we recognize the importance of children spending time with their parents. With that in mind, we strive to develop a plan that both parties agree are in the best interests of their children.
- Child Custody & Support - With stakes so high, custody and support matters can devolve into bitter arguments between divorcing spouses. We seek to approach these disputes with a focus on the children, but will aggressively defend our clients’ interests in court, as well.
Contact our Jersey City office at (201) 793-7739, our West Caldwell office at (201) 918-4144, or our Bayonne office at (201) 793-7739.
- Spousal Support & Alimony - We do our best to seek the continuation of a lifestyle enjoyed in a marriage following a divorce.
- Property Settlements / Division of Assets - Dividing property and assets are usually the final steps in a long journey towards divorce. Too much is at stake for you not to know the ramifications of a final agreement.
- Domestic Violence/Protective Orders - Your rights are at stake should a restraining order be filed against you following an accusation of domestic violence. Conversely, a spouse's safety may be in jeopardy and a protective order may become necessary.
- Prenuptial Agreements - If you own significant assets or wish to protect your children from a previous marriage, a prenuptial agreement can help put your mind at ease.
- Domestic Partnerships / Civil Unions - Even domestic partnerships can end in dissolution. Our attorneys help clients wishing to end a civil union. We will represent you aggressively, but with an understanding of the emotional ramifications of the experience.
- Adoptions - At our firm, we handle stepparent, foreign and private adoptions. Bringing families together is perhaps the most rewarding part of our family law practice.
In addition to the above listed practice areas, we also handle cases that involve real estate, wills and estate administration.
