Child Support
is payment by one spouse to the other spouse for the
benefit and support of the child or children
following a divorce. Child Support can be
ordered by the Court even if the parents were never
married. Child support payments typically
continue until the child turns 18 years old.
Child support
cannot be discharged in bankruptcy and is not considered
as income by the receiving parent, nor considered a tax
deduction by the paying parent.
Child support
issues can be extremely complicated and your legal
interests are best served by retaining experienced legal
counsel who will represent you during the child support

The amount of child support that a parent pays is
determined by the Child Support Guidelines. When
calculating the proper child support to be paid,
there are a number of factors to consider that affects
the child support that is ordered by the court.
Some of those issues include, but are not limited to:
-
The amount of overnights stays of the child with
each parent;
-
The financial needs of the child such as day care
expenses, medical / dental insurance, and uninsured
medical payments; and
-
The current income of both parents.
In the event that circumstances with either parent
significantly change, which may warrant a post-judgment
child support modification, either parent
may file for a modification hearing to change the
existing child support court order. Modification
requests are not typically well received by the other
parent, and are often highly contested.
