QUESTION
Does spousal support automatically continue when divorced?
Asked on Mar 05th, 2021 on Divorce - New Jersey
More details to this question:
When agreement was drawn up I was 60 so we agreed to separation support so I can stay on his medical insurance. Until 65 and go on Medicaid. In papers it is not clear that spousal support continues when divorced. But that was what I was told.

You need a consultation with a divorce law specialist to review your agreement terms and to better guide you. I do know where in NJ you live, but our firm has an office in Millburn and in Ocean County (Forked River) and consultations can be arranged through Zoom (videoconferencing) or in person. For divorce and for post-divorce purposes, initial consultations are free (your inquiry would be free).
My suggestion would be for you to contact Angela of our office at either 973-379-9292 or at 609-248-9595 to schedule a consultation. My suggestion would also be to fax or email a copy of your settlement greement to the office in advance of the consultation, so that we can review it and be in a better position to discuss its terms when we talk with you about where you stand currently.
