Divorce Papers

October 26, 2020 by Vincent DeLuca

People who are contemplating a divorce often ask what constitutes divorce papers.  Divorce papers is a term of art that refers to the documents that are required in order to institute a divorce proceeding.  In the State of New Jersey, there are a number of documents that need to be filed in order to commence a divorce proceeding.  Those documents include the following

  1. A cover letter to the court enclosing the required documents along with requisite filing fee
  2. The complaint for divorce
  3. The affidavit of Insurance Coverage
  4. Confidential litigant information sheet
  5. Certification of dispute resolution alternatives
  6. Summons   

The above documentation needs to be submitted to the appropriate County Courthouse for processing.  In the event the paperwork is not completed properly the complaint and the related documents will be rejected by the court and they will then need to be subsequently refiled. 

Divorce papers are an important part of the divorce process.  If you do not frame the contents of the complaint correctly it could seriously affect the outcome of your divorce.
