Greetings,
I filed a restraining order on the father of my child who we have a dv history since 2012 to 17 At the present time my daughter is residing with defendant temporary from court. In bergen county nj. The restraining order is in full affect still and judge told defendant that he can prevent me from communicating or seeing her at all. Since he did and is in documents threatening me. Defendant lie to judge under oath and stated he has full custody and Im a drug addict and that he spoke to judge. But, Im not of those and documents prevail all my statements. We go to trial.

A: The only way to resolve this matter is to retain an experienced matrimonial attorney who has extensive domestic violence trial experience. In determining your choice of an attorney, there are many factors to consider, including but not limited to and you should look at how the attorney is ranked on leading websites. You should also consider the attorney's reviews. Pick the best attorney you can find and remember one rule: a good attorney is generally never cheap, and a cheap attorney is generally never good so don't choose based on price. With modern technology, you can be represented by any high-quality attorney in New Jersey irrespective of geography.
