- 2019 – Attorney Rush successfully litigated a Hunterdon County (NJ) case where he obtained a Court Order terminating his client’s alimony obligation due to changed circumstances and substantially reducing the client’s child support obligation by more than 60% due to the client’s decreased income.
- 2016 – Attorney Rush obtained a Court Order in a Pennsylvania case terminating his client’s 6+ year alimony obligation due to the ex-spouse’s cohabitation less than 1 year after the Divorce Decree was entered.
2018 – Attorney Rush negotiated a high-net worth divorce settlement agreement in a 30+ year marriage involving a client who earned more than $1.6 million dollars per year and a non-working spouse. Attorney Rush successfully limited the client’s alimony obligation to a modest, one-time buyout representing less than 13% of the client’s annual income. Attorney Rush’s client was also able to retain the marital home, 50% of the retirement benefits, and 75% of her executive stock options/restricted stock units worth more than $3.0 Million combined.
2018 – Attorney Rush successfully litigated a complex divorce matter in Hunterdon County (NJ) where he was able to set aside the unreasonable terms of a pre-nuptial agreement that would have left his client with no alimony and zero interest in the spouse’s retirement benefits. Attorney Rush successfully argued that the pre-nuptial agreement was invalid because it failed to provide full and fair disclosure of the parties’ income and assets, the terms were unconscionable, and client did not sign it voluntarily due to her limited ability to read/understand the English language. As a result, Attorney Rush was instead able to obtain substantial alimony and child support awards as well as an immediate lump sum payment of $190,000 for the client.
