Experienced Guidance for Child Support Issues

When a marriage ends in divorce or when unmarried parents separate, both parents remain responsible for the care and well-being of minor children. It is often appropriate for one parent to pay child support to the other for this purpose.

Child support is not the right of either parent, but rather the right of the children. The amount of child support is determined by a set of guidelines that take into account factors such as:

• The number of children
• The income of each parent
• The cost of day care and health insurance
• Special needs of the children

While child support can sometimes be determined by a simple calculation, there are factors that can complicate matters significantly. For instance, if one parent is self-employed, determining his or income is more complicated than simply adding up payslips. In some cases, people hide income or are accused of the same, creating a contentious legal matter that must be handled with care.
