Morris County Attorneys Handling Non-Divorce Family Matters in New Jersey

Non-dissolution matters (FD) are cases for individuals who have never been married or who have not yet filed a Complaint for Divorce.

Even if a couple was never married, the court can still address:

• Custody
• Parenting time
• Paternity
• Medical coverage
• Emancipation

In New Jersey, there is a mandatory screening process to determine which methods of dispute resolution should be attempted before the matter can be brought to a judge. Often, these cases are handled in mediation sessions called “consent conferences” that are run by trained court staff. Unlike normal mediation, a consent conference is not confidential.

If you are a parent facing an FD matter, Edens Law Group is here to help. We have guided countless clients through these cases and understand the approach needed to achieve positive results.
