About West New York, NJ

West New York is a town located in northern Hudson County, New Jersey. Founded at the turn of the 20th century, West New York was part of Hudson County’s booming embroidery industry in the first half of the 20th century. In the mid-1900s, an influx of Cuban immigrants made West New York one of the largest Hispanic communities in the country. Continued rapid population growth has today made West New York one of the most densely populated communities in the U.S., with the formerly-industrial Hudson waterfront area redeveloped for residential and recreational uses.

Frequently Asked Questions about Divorce in West New York, NJ

If my spouse wants to get divorced but I don’t, will he or she have to pay my legal fees and costs?

You are not entitled to have your spouse pay for your legal expenses simply because your spouse was the one demanding a divorce. Instead, there are laws and court rules that govern whether one spouse may be entitled to reimbursement of legal costs from the other spouse. In addition, “fault” for the divorce cannot be used as a basis to award the other spouse reimbursement for the costs and expenses of the divorce.

If I received a large inheritance prior to my divorce, will I have to split it with my spouse?

Not necessarily. In equitable distribution during divorce, the court will only divide the marital assets and liabilities. Inheritances are generally considered to be “separate” property not subject to equitable distribution. However, it is possible to convert separate property such as an inheritance into marital property subject to equitable distribution, such as if you used your inheritance as a down payment for the marital home.
