Alimony, Child Support & the Government Shutdown

Are you a federal employee in New Jersey who is affected by the ongoing government shut down? Are you going without your regular paycheck? If you have alimony or child support obligations this can create a significant problem as the payments are not automatically suspended. If you are unable to stay current with your payments while being furloughed, arrearages can accrue and enforcement methods may be implemented. You should consult with an experienced family law attorney to explore the options available to you.
