Family Law, Divorce, & Child Custody
When Life Isn’t a Box of Chocolates, We Go to Court.
Legal issues relating to marriage, relationships, and children are often the most difficult.
If you are facing a family issue, the actions you take - and the decisions you make, now - will impact your finances, living arrangements, and property rights far into the future. Some say it takes up to ten years to recover from the financial impact of divorce.
More importantly, the outcome of your case may determine who your children live with and how often you’ll get to see them.
If you’re the victim of domestic violence, your safety and the safety of your children are at stake. If you’re charged with domestic violence, your freedom is in jeopardy.
When life isn’t a box of chocolates, you need an experienced family law attorney who knows how to resolve your issues but isn’t afraid to litigate them.

In family law, the emphasis is on dispute resolution and settlement. When children are involved, resolving conflict offers parties a way to disengage and work together to benefit their children. When there are no children, compromise and settlement allow parties to part with dignity.

Ianetti, Esq., brings more than 30 years of litigation experience to bear on the problem. Ernest has successfully litigated disputed matters involving divorce, child custody, and domestic violence in New Jersey and as far away as Paris, France.
Our firm represents clients in nearly every aspect of family law, including divorce, the division of property, assets and debt, spousal and child support, child custody and visitation, and domestic violence matters
Divorce
New Jersey is a “No-Fault” divorce state. That means if one party wants to end the marriage, the other has no choice. Of course, a party can still bring “fault-based” claims, but, in the end, divorce is about financial issues: the equitable distribution of marital property, and the fair payment of support.
Usually, these issues are quickly settled. But, problems occur when a party attempts to hide assets or income, or when a party is deliberately under-employed. In those cases, experts must unearth hidden assets and income, determine employability, and value property, including real estate, retirement funds, and family-owned businesses.
Ernest G. Ianetti works hard to ensure his family law clients receive fair and equitable support and property awards. If you are facing divorce, call for a FREE initial case assessment. We’ll discuss your situation in complete confidence and help you end your marriage fairly, with dignity.
