Did you not understand the first time this question was answered? YOU NEED A LAWYER IN NJ TO CHALLENGE JURISDICTION! Seriously! We're not making it up!I'm strongly considering getting an attorney, but if I can't afford it I will do as you suggested. However, when looking for an attorney, should the attorney still be in NJ as early suggested? Or since I'm challenging the jurisdiction, can a NM attorney help?
MY experience in NJ is that the courts are loathe to accept jurisdiction even when neither parent lives in the originating state. But you should not in any way assume that will be the case in your situation, and you'd be foolish to try to play it on your own. But you'll do what you choose.
