What Child Support Attorneys Handle
Child support attorneys play a vital role in various aspects of child support cases, including:
- Calculating support amounts: Lawyers use legislative formulas to determine the presumptive child support obligations based on parents' combined incomes. For example, 17% for one child, 25% for two children, and so on, and you can use this calculator to input your numbers and get specific amounts.
- Addressing basic and additional expenses: Basic support covers essential living costs, while add-ons include health insurance, unreimbursed medical expenses, childcare, and educational needs.
- Handling joint custody issues: Determining who pays child support can be challenging in joint custody arrangements. Typically, the higher-earning parent provides support.
- Managing income caps: Attorneys stay updated on income caps, which affect support calculations. As of March 1, 2024, the cap for child support is $183,000, and for maintenance, it’s $228,000.
- Termination of support: Legal guidance on when child support obligations end, such as when a child turns 21, gets married, becomes self-supporting, or joins the military.
By leveraging the knowledge and experience of your attorney, you can begin working on a fair and legally sound outcome that prioritizes your child's welfare. Legal knowledge can offer the clarity and confidence you need if you're unsure about any aspect of child support or require assistance navigating the process.
