Legal Question in Family Law in New Jersey

My husband and I have been separated for years. I had an amendment to our separation agreement drawn up which he signed and notarized back in 2008. In looking through my papers I found that I did not sign the documents. Is it too late for me to have them signed and notarized now and the documents still be legally binding?

Your question is whether you can sign it now and still have it be binding. That will depend on a couple of things, including what the amendment is about, and whether your husband has relied on this agreement. It sounds like a consultation with a divorce attorney would help you. Give me a call, make an appointment to come see me, and let's get moving on this for you.

Please keep in mind that my response is just a general comment on your question, and not legal advice. Your question and any response does NOT create an attorney-client relationship between you and this law firm. The exact details of your situation and things that you have not mentioned in your question can completely change the answer to your question. You can not rely upon what I have written, because I do not have all of the formation that I need to advise you, I only have the very small amount of information that you put into your question. For me to give you any legal advice, I would need for you to hire me to be your lawyer, and then we would need to discuss this in detail and go over the documents.

To get legal advice that you can rely on and use, please contact me directly. I would be happy to assist you.
