How the courts are organised
New Jersey runs a single Superior Court divided into Law, Chancery and Appellate divisions, organised into fifteen vicinages covering the twenty-one counties. Family matters sit in the Chancery Division's Family Part. Appeals go to the Appellate Division and then the New Jersey Supreme Court. Federal cases fall to the District of New Jersey, which sits in Newark, Trenton and Camden.
Points that shape New Jersey cases
— Attorneys are licensed by the New Jersey Supreme Court; the state maintains a public attorney index.
— Auto claims run through a choice no-fault system: which coverage option a driver selected decides whether they can sue for pain and suffering at all.
— Marital property is divided by equitable distribution rather than equally.
— Matrimonial cases pass through an early settlement panel, where experienced local attorneys give a non-binding recommendation before trial — familiarity with that process is worth asking about.
