Cohabitation Investigation Services for Alimony Cases

PROVING YOUR EX IS COHABITATING

Some individuals require alimony, also known as spousal support. 

Have you reached a divorce settlement that includes alimony payments? Unfortunately, some people attempt to exploit the system through alimony fraud, despite the fact that these payments, which are in addition to child support, are designed to help the lower-earning spouse meet essential living expenses.

If you suspect your ex-spouse is failing to uphold their spousal support obligations, our New Jersey private investigators can assist you in uncovering the facts. Our skilled team specializes in gathering high-definition video footage, background records, and other court-admissible evidence to help you potentially reduce or eliminate alimony payments.

N.J.S.A. 2A:34-23(n) and the Effect of Cohabitation on Alimony

On September 10, 2014, the New Jersey Legislature amended the alimony statute, N.J.S.A. 2A:34-23.

When determining whether cohabitation is taking place, a court will evaluate the following:  

1- Intertwined finances, including joint bank accounts and other shared holdings or liabilities.  

2- Joint responsibility for living expenses.  

3- Recognition of the relationship within the couple’s social and family circles.  

4- Co-habitation, including contact frequency, the relationship's duration, and other indicators of a mutually supportive intimate personal relationship.  

5- Shared household chores.  

6- Whether the alimony recipient has received an enforceable promise of support from another individual.  

7- Any other pertinent evidence.
