Simon Law Group handles family law, estate planning, probate, personal injury, civil litigation, business, real estate, bankruptcy, foreclosure, workers' compensation, SSDI, and appellate matters in Middlesex County.
Middlesex County practice scope
Middlesex County matters are not all the same just because they share a county name. The useful local question is usually venue, court process, office access, records, travel, local property or employment patterns, and which Simon Law Group practice group should evaluate the issue first.
This page is the general Middlesex County service hub. The county-specific divorce page remains available for Family Part details, but Simon Law Group's local work is broader than divorce. We handle family law, estate planning, probate, personal injury, civil litigation, business litigation, legal malpractice, real estate, bankruptcy, foreclosure defense, workers' compensation, SSDI, appeals, criminal defense, DUI/DWI, expungement matters in this county.

Middlesex County intake guide
Who this guide helps
Logistics, fleet, trucking, and warehouse workers, dispatchers, contractors, vehicle owners, and people with employment, accident, or insurance records.
What to sort out
Dispatch, route, vehicle, employment, medical, and insurance records may be stored by different employers, carriers, health providers, and insurers. Dashcam clips, electronic logging device downloads, and tollbooth timestamps can pin a route down minute by minute, but each sits with a different keeper and expires on its own schedule.
Court and agency routing
This Middlesex County page is a routing aid for preparing an intake; it does not choose the court division. Family, civil, criminal, probate, workers’ compensation, insurance, and agency paths depend on the matter, and the Middlesex Vicinage directory provides official court information.
Official court source: NJ Courts Middlesex Vicinage.
Three intake decisions
- Identify whether the person is a driver, dispatcher, warehouse employee, contractor, fleet owner, passenger, employer, vehicle owner, or insured and list each involved entity.
- Organize time and dispatch records, route and delivery logs, vehicle and maintenance files, incident materials, medical records, and insurance communications by custodian.
- Record whether the next routing question concerns Family Part, Civil Part, workers’ compensation, an insurance or benefits process, probate, municipal court, or another forum.
Official local evidence: Transportation and warehousing accounted for 13.3% of Middlesex County private employment compared with 6.4% statewide, with a 26.1% increase over the report comparison period. View the 2026 NJDOL county report using 2024 data.Source checked July 12, 2026.

Middlesex County questions we are asked
Where are Middlesex County divorce and custody cases heard?
Middlesex County divorce, custody, and support matters are heard in the Superior Court, Chancery Division, Family Part at the Middlesex County Family Courthouse, 120 New Street, New Brunswick, NJ 08903, which is a different New Brunswick building from the Middlesex County Courthouse at 56 Paterson Street. Middlesex County forms its own Superior Court vicinage. Which county a divorce is filed in is set by court rule, not by where either spouse lives today, so a recent move can change the answer. Confirm venue with a lawyer before filing.
Where are civil and injury lawsuits filed in Middlesex County?
Civil suits with venue in Middlesex County, including injury claims, proceed in the Superior Court, Law Division, Civil Part at the Middlesex County Courthouse, 56 Paterson Street, New Brunswick, NJ 08903-0964. New Jersey filing deadlines are strict and some are short, so the venue and deadline questions belong at the front of a case rather than the middle. The firm's personal injury pages explain what evidence matters and how county venue is set.
Where is a will probated in Middlesex County?
Probate for a Middlesex County estate opens at the Middlesex County Surrogate's Office at 75 Bayard Street, 1st Floor, New Brunswick, NJ 08901. Probate of wills, estate administration (appointment of executors and administrators), and applications for letters of guardianship of a minor are filed with the County Surrogate's Office; an adult guardianship case is filed there and heard in Superior Court. Which county's Surrogate opens the estate is set by where the decedent was domiciled at death, and where domicile is unclear that is a question for counsel.

What records matter in Middlesex County cases involving trucking or warehouse work?

Each record sits with a different keeper and some expire on their own schedules, which makes early preservation important.
