CHILD SUPPORT
Child Support
The process of going from a dual income household to one with just yourself is hard and overwhelming. When you are responsible for raising children, that stress and anxiety grows exponentially. Being a parent is hard enough, you should not have to worry how you’ll care for the children financially.
receive proper support
Ohio law recognizes the need for a child to receive proper support and resources during their childhood. Whether you need someone to fight to establish a child support order, modify that order, or to enforce it against non-payment, we have the litigation experience you need.
Child support in the parenting plan
Child support will be outlined in the parenting plan which you and your ex-spouse agree to. As you begin to develop your parenting plan, remember these considerations when it comes to child support:
- Age of the children
- Income
- Amount of time with each parent
- Expenses
- Medical costs
- Daycare costs
- Special Needs
How to modify child support
Once the court has issued the parenting plan, child support payments can be modified if there is a justified reason, such as a substantial change in cost of health insurance, job loss, illness, decrease or increase in expenses, or additional income.
