Child Custody in Colts Neck and Oceanport

For parents in Colts Neck and the neighboring Oceanport community, custody arrangements must account for school locations, extracurricular activities, and the unique character of these Monmouth County townships. Whether your children attend Colts Neck schools or one of the nearby districts, we help develop parenting plans that provide stability while respecting both parents' relationships with their children.

Mediation for Local Families

In a community like Colts Neck, where families often know each other through schools, equestrian activities, and local organizations, maintaining privacy and civility during divorce can be particularly important. Mediation provides a way to resolve family law disputes outside the public courtroom setting, allowing you to maintain some control.

Our attorneys facilitate productive mediation sessions where parties can negotiate settlements on property division, custody, and support matters. This approach often preserves better co-parenting relationships and reduces the emotional and financial costs associated with litigation.

Protecting Your Assets and Future

At Amdur, Maggs & Dugan, we provide one-on-one service to every client. We recognize that the decisions made during your divorce will affect your financial security and family relationships for years to come.

We believe in thinking ahead, considering not just your immediate concerns but how today's legal decisions will impact your tomorrow. Whether you're negotiating a prenuptial agreement before marriage, navigating a divorce, or seeking to modify an existing support order, we take time to understand your goals and develop strategies to achieve them.

Domestic Violence and Protective Orders

Family law sometimes involves urgent safety concerns. If you or your children are experiencing domestic violence in Colts Neck, Oceanport, or the surrounding areas, we can help you obtain protective orders and take legal action to keep your family safe. We handle temporary restraining order applications and final restraining order hearings with the sensitivity and urgency these matters require.

Don't face your family law matter alone. Contact us online or dial (732) 474-7531 today to learn how our experienced team can help you navigate this challenging time.
