Child Support
My firm can provide advice, services and representation in child support matters such as:
- Determination of the required support level
- Modifications in child support
- Enforcement of child support orders
- Paternity as it relates to child support
In Indiana, the level of child support is determined by guidelines in the statutes. Factors that affect the required support level include the incomes of the parents, the number of children, the number of overnights a child spends with each parent and others. The question of child support however, is not always answered by just plugging in the numbers. If a parent is attempting to hide income, or has widely varying seasonal income, for example, special efforts are necessary to investigate the situation and achieve the correct child support figure.
Spousal Support
The payment of spousal support, sometimes referred to as alimony, may or may not be required in a particular case. The court will consider factors such as the length of the marriage, the ability of a spouse to support herself or himself and others when answering the question of spousal support. I can review your case and discuss your options.
Modifications in Child and Spousal Support
After your divorce is final, my firm can also address issues regarding modifications in child support and spousal support. For example, if a parent's income has changed significantly, I can seek to obtain a modification in child support. In most cases, I can achieve a modification quickly and cost-effectively. Some modification matters may require substantial legal effort to achieve. My firm will provide diligent, results-oriented representation whatever your situation.
