Worried your child custody case will drag out, drain your savings, and leave you feeling powerless?
If you’re in Hackensack or anywhere in Bergen County, the process can be overwhelming—especially if the other parent has already hired an attorney. You need a child custody lawyer who understands New Jersey law and the local court system, and who will fight for the best outcome for your family.
The Davies Law Firm combines local insight, practical strategies, and direct attorney access to help you protect your parental rights and secure a plan that works for you and your children.
Hackensack NJ Child Custody Lawyer Who Protects Your Parental Rights
Child custody cases in New Jersey are decided under N.J.S.A. 9:2-4, which focuses on the best interests of the child. That sounds straightforward, but in reality, the process involves a maze of negotiations, court hearings, and legal filings. One wrong move can affect your custody arrangement for years.
When you hire The Davies Law Firm, you’re getting:
- A lawyer familiar with Bergen County judges, court staff, and procedural preferences.
- Clear, realistic advice on what to expect at each stage.
- Strong representation in both settlement discussions and the courtroom.
We know your goals are simple: keep your relationship with your child strong and maintain stability in their life. Our role is to build the case that supports those goals—backed by evidence, legal precedent, and strategic negotiation.
