Child Support: The Basics

Child support ensures that both parents share the financial responsibility of raising a child, regardless of marital status. Typically, the non-custodial parent provides payment to the custodial parent to help offset the costs of childcare.

Factors Influencing Child Support Amounts

1. Income of Both Parents: This includes wages, bonuses, dividends, pensions, and more.
2. Child's Standard of Living Before Separation/Divorce: The goal is to maintain a similar quality of life post-divorce.
3. Child's Medical and Educational Needs: Including any special requirements.
4. Time Spent with Each Parent: Including overnight stays, weekends, and holidays.
5. Age of the Child: Different ages can carry different financial needs.

Child Support Modification

Life's unpredictable nature means circumstances can change – loss of a job, significant increases or decreases in income, or changes in the child’s needs. When these events occur, it’s crucial to know that child support orders can be reviewed and modified.

The Importance of Legal Representation

Child support determination is complex and involves a deep understanding of state-specific guidelines. Here's why legal representation is essential:

Accurate Calculations: Ensuring the correct determination of both parents' income and the amount due.
Negotiations: In some cases, both parties can agree on an amount outside of standard calculations.
Enforcing Child Support Orders: If a parent refuses to pay, legal steps can be taken to ensure compliance.
