Family Law Attorney Melinda Previtera Shares New Guidelines Concerning New Jersey Divorce

August 12, 2015 - PRESSADVANTAGE -

Melinda Previtera, a Family Law Attorney in Moorestown, NJ, has released her new guidelines for obtaining a divorce decree in the state of New Jersey. While all lawyers are expected to be adept and knowledgeable about different laws, there are some who have decided to focus on a certain specialization to have a deeper understanding of a given legal problem; Melinda Previtera is one of them.

Previtera is an Attorney at Law who works closely with families in providing legal remedies involving divorce, adoption, child custody, child support and estate planning. She spends a great deal of her time perusing voluminous cases pertaining to Family Law. As a strong advocate of great family ties, Previtera shares her new guidelines towards obtaining a divorce in New Jersey on her site at http://family-law-attorney.com/six-steps-obtaining-new-jersey-divorce/. The steps shown cover instances such as when one's spouse is uncooperative, too controlling, threatening or simply doesn't want to consent to the divorce.

The first and most basic step in achieving a severance to an erring spouse is by contacting a family lawyer. Determining the proper grounds for divorce is another matter, and reasons can include adultery, mental illness, drug or alcohol abuse as well as physical or mental cruelty to name a few. Once the grounds for divorce are understood and determined, the necessary papers for the said petition have to be filled out and served to the sheriff's office. The defendant spouse is given 35 days to respond. The process may take a while if the other spouse files a counterclaim. This however, may work the other way around if the spouse does not answer. A default request judgment may then be requested from the court. If everything else fails and the abusive spouse contests the grounds or any legality thereof, the family lawyer will then appear on behalf of the client.
