Butler, Pennsylvania Lawyers Provide Support Through Child Support Proceedings
If you and your partner are divorcing or separating, the child is always a main concern. Child custody and/or visitation rights must be established. However, ensuring the child is supported monetarily, whether you are making or receiving the payments, is another main concern. In the Butler County area, DeRiso Law Group, Attorneys at Law, are committed to providing support in family law matters. They work closely with you, so you are well-informed throughout the child support proceedings.
Our Lawyers Handle All Child Support Related Matters
The amount of child support payments is ultimately decided by the court. There are online calculators which give you an estimate of the child support you may be paying or receiving, but these are not always accurate. No online calculator can examine your case thoroughly. Most courts will begin by determining your net pay (how much money you make after taxes), but there may be other, less concrete factors that alter this figure. Courts will take into account things like:
- The child’s needs (medical, educational, special needs)
- The child’s standard of living before divorce or separation
- The income and needs of the custodial parent
Perhaps your ex-spouse is refusing to make child support payments and you want to take legal action. Or you may have fallen on hard times and are unable to make payments yourself. Whatever your situation, you need a compassionate and thorough lawyer to help you through the proceedings and make your case heard. Our lawyers can sift through your case with you so you can develop a more accurate picture of how you will be paying or receiving.
