He is the author of The Compendium of Family Law for Law Clerks, a treatise used within the Morris/Sussex Vicinage. Mr. Pelic remains committed to providing clear guidance and diligent representation to clients navigating family law matters. He is also active in pro bono service, including volunteer work on behalf of indigent veterans and survivors of domestic abuse through the Battered Women’s Legal Advocacy Project.
