How Much Does It Cost to File for Divorce?

The cost of divorce in New Jersey varies, so it is almost impossible to provide an exact price, unless the divorce is uncontested and there are no assets, no children, and no issues. A divorce with high assets, home ownership, or children doesn’t necessarily have to be expensive if the parties can come to an agreement in the beginning stages, or even before they get divorced. The cost of an uncontested divorce in New Jersey will typically start around $1,500.00, plus the filing fee.

Where Do I File for Divorce?

If you’re filing for divorce, it’s important to know where it must be done. This is pretty straightforward. You will be required to submit your application in the county that you and your ex-spouse-to-be currently reside. If you live in separate counties, either county courthouse will suffice.
