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.

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).
