- Equitable distribution, in which all marital equity in the matrimonial estates (i.e., that which was gained during the marriage by either spouse), is split evenly
- Division of property, property settlement

Because of their experience and personal attention, our lawyers receive referrals not only from satisfied clients, but from other family law attorneys in Monmouth, Ocean, and Middlesex counties.
Aiming for Settlements, Litigating When Necessary
Most clients want to settle family law issues as quickly as possible, and we try to provide what they want. However, when settlement is not in the best interest of the client, our attorneys are ready and able to try the case. Even when we plan to settle, we prepare as if we were going to trial -- we believe that when you show an opponent that you're ready for trial, they are usually more willing to offer a reasonable settlement.
In the courtroom, our divorce and mediation lawyers are confident and talented advocates with instinct, judgment, and a deep awareness of family issues. They have strong abilities to communicate with judges and juries and make them understand the realities of her clients' situations.
Family Law: Connected to Many Other Legal Areas
Family law encompasses many issues beyond the obvious matters of divorce, legal separation, custody, child support, alimony, property division, and domestic violence. A qualified family law attorney also needs to have broad experience in numerous areas of the law, such as taxation, pensions, earning capacity, and other employment law issues, real estate, estate planning, and bankruptcy. At Miller and Gaudio, P.C., we regularly practice in all of these areas, and we have the resources and judgment our clients need when confronted with diverse issues.
