Uncontested Divorce with Children in New Jersey

When children are involved, the paperwork grows — a parenting plan, custody terms, and a child-support worksheet. SimpleDivorce prepares all of it alongside your uncontested divorce so your agreement is complete and court-ready. In New Jersey, most uncontested cases finalize in about 6 weeks to 3 months after filing, depending on county court scheduling and whether a brief final hearing is required.

Filing in New Jersey

Court

Superior Court (Chancery Division, Family Part)

Residency

One spouse must have lived in New Jersey for at least 12 consecutive months before filing.

Filing fee

Approximately $300 court filing fee (varies by county; passed through at cost).

Waiting period

No mandatory waiting period after filing; however, the no-fault ground requires the spouses' irreconcilable differences to have existed for at least 6 months before the case is filed, and timing afterward is driven by court processing.
