Child Support Payments
Broward County Child Support Lawyer
As a biological or adoptive parent, you have the responsibility to financially
provide for your children. You may wonder how you would realistically
accomplish this after
divorce. In addition to creating a new life for yourself without your spouse,
one parent may be required to pay child support to the other parent. These
are payments ordered to cover costs such as health care, child care, and
other necessities. Child support is calculated using a mathematical formula
that is based on both parents' incomes, timesharing between the parents,
health insurance costs, and costs of child care. In some cases, parents
choose to be unemployed or underemployed in order to receive more money
from their ex-spouse in the form of child support payments. This is not
a successful tactic as the court will impute income to this individual
for the purpose of calculating child support payments.

If you have already been through the divorce process and you are making
large support payments, feel your support payments are less than you should
be receiving, or your child is now an adult, then it is important to know
that family law issues and divorce stipulations can be modified to better
suit your needs and circumstances. If you need legal assistance to modify
your child support payments, contact a Broward County divorce lawyer from
Lindsay A. Feldman, P.A. today.
People change, circumstances change, and incomes change. If you are experiencing
difficulty in making your support payments or would like to seek more
child support from the other parent, then you should retain legal assistance
in order to petition the court to alter your payment amount. It may be
beneficial to enter into or request a modification agreement with the
other parent, as the legal fees, and the stress of the process in its
entirety, may render your modification cost prohibitive.
