Attorney Allan Weinberg has been representing clients in New Jersey family law matters continuously since 1985, and he gives every client his personal mobile number so they can reach him directly, at any hour, at no additional cost.
Introduction
Most attorneys who have been practicing for four decades have accumulated a mix of matter types and a broad client base across different fields. Allan Weinberg took a different path. Since receiving his J.D. from Rutgers University School of Law in 1984 and beginning his practice in 1985, he has worked in family law. Nothing else. That sustained focus over more than four decades of practice produces a depth of knowledge in New Jersey family law that breadth cannot substitute for.
The firm is located in Manalapan, New Jersey at 200 Highway 9, Suite 400, Manalapan, NJ 07726, and can be reached at (732) 806-5529. Allan Weinberg’s credentials include an advanced degree beyond his J.D.: a Master of Laws from New York University School of Law, which represents additional academic study at one of the country’s most respected law schools.
The firm’s approach to client relationships is unusual and worth noting directly. Attorney Weinberg provides clients with his personal mobile number and makes himself available around the clock without charging extra for that access. Family law matters do not follow business hours. Emergencies involving children, domestic violence, and compliance violations can require immediate legal guidance, and Weinberg’s availability policy reflects a recognition of that reality.
Practice Areas
Allan Weinberg’s practice encompasses the full spectrum of family law matters that arise in New Jersey courts, from straightforward uncontested divorces to complex multi-issue contested proceedings.
Divorce is the most common matter in any family law practice. Weinberg handles both uncontested divorces, where both parties have agreed on all issues and simply need proper legal documentation and court processing, and complex contested divorces involving disputed property division, business valuation, support disputes, and custody conflicts. New Jersey divorce law involves equitable distribution of marital assets, which requires identifying what is marital versus separate property and then determining a fair allocation. The complexity of a divorce case often depends less on the legal issues than on the financial and emotional complexity of the marriage itself.
Prenuptial agreements are drafted before marriage to define property rights and financial responsibilities in the event of divorce or death. A valid prenuptial agreement in New Jersey must meet specific procedural and substantive requirements to be enforceable. Agreements that are improperly drafted or signed without appropriate review may not hold up in court. Weinberg drafts these agreements and reviews agreements brought by clients who have been asked to sign one.
Child custody matters are among the most emotionally charged in family law. New Jersey courts apply a best interests of the child standard, which requires consideration of a wide range of factors including each parent’s relationship with the child, stability of the home environment, the child’s adjustment to school and community, and the ability of each parent to cooperate with the other in parenting matters. Weinberg represents parents in initial custody determinations and in post-judgment modifications when circumstances have changed.
Child support is calculated in New Jersey using the Child Support Guidelines, a formula that takes into account each parent’s income, the parenting time allocation, health insurance costs, and childcare expenses. While the guidelines provide a starting point, deviations are possible when the standard calculation would be inequitable. Weinberg handles both initial support determinations and modifications.
Domestic violence matters require prompt attention and knowledge of New Jersey’s Prevention of Domestic Violence Act. The firm handles both protective order applications for victims seeking legal protection and representation for individuals who have been named in a domestic violence action.
Alimony in New Jersey is evaluated based on multiple statutory factors including the length of the marriage, the standard of living during the marriage, each party’s earning capacity, and the needs of each party. The type of alimony appropriate to a given situation, whether open durational, limited duration, rehabilitative, or reimbursement, depends on the specific facts. Weinberg has handled alimony disputes throughout his decades of practice.
Municipal court matters that intersect with family law circumstances are also within the firm’s scope.
Boutique legal services reflects the firm’s identity as a focused, personally-managed practice where the attorney personally handles each matter rather than delegating to associates or paralegals.

Client Focus
Allan Weinberg’s practice model is structured around personal attention from the attorney himself. The boutique designation is specific: this is not a firm where a named partner brings in business and hands cases to associates. Weinberg handles his clients’ matters directly.
The 24/7 mobile access is a concrete expression of that model. Family law situations do not wait for office hours. A client who learns their spouse has taken the children overnight in violation of a custody order, or who faces an emergency situation involving domestic violence, needs to be able to reach their attorney. Weinberg’s policy of providing his personal mobile number, without additional charge, directly addresses that need.
The free initial consultation gives prospective clients the ability to sit down with the attorney, discuss their situation, and assess the fit before making a financial commitment. In family law, where the client-attorney relationship is often intense and emotionally significant, this initial meeting matters.
