Determining Fair Child Support
Child support is vital to achieving financial stability for your children as you go forward in life after a divorce or separation. Proper child support contributes to your child’s health and education, and can contribute to a sense of stability for your children post-divorce or separation. Most people understand child support as financial support of children – and that’s true – but child support also plays a significant role in making sure that children have a similar experience of stability in each home in which they spend time.
Here at The Law Offices of Saylin & Swisher, our attorneys have extensive knowledge of California child support laws and guidelines, and we will strongly advocate for and support the best interests of you and your child or children.
While there are many factors that family law courts take into consideration to determine child support, child support calculations include:
- The income of both parents
- The time children spend with each parent, and whether that parent is a custodial or noncustodial parent
- Various other factors, including health care expenses, child care expenses, mandatory fees, and other deductions
Child support cases can range in their complexity depending on circumstances. If you are working through a child support case, it is important that you retain experienced, compassionate counsel to advocate for you and your loved ones’ rights and wellbeing. Please feel free to contact us today and schedule a consultation if you’d like to discuss your child support situation. We would be happy to help you understand your options.
