A Free Discovery Session

I am custodial parent in NJ, NCP lives in PA where divorce was decreed. NJ child support laws are effective through college, so can I file for a support order in NJ?

If you have a support order as part of your PA divorce decree, then PA has jurisdiction and its laws control child support age limits. However, it may be possible to domesticate your child support case to NJ. Consult with a child support lawyer to determine if this is feasible.
