CHILD SUPPORT
Child support is the term used to describe the obligation of a non-custodial parent to provide financial support for the care of his or her minor children to the custodial parent. Federal law requires both parents to support their minor children according to their ability, regardless of who the children live with. You want the best for your children, our civil lawyers ensure your children are taken care of and you are not taken advantage of unfairly.
In California, both parents are legally obligated to financially support their children until they reach the age of 18 or are emancipated. The parent who does not have custody of the child typically pays child support to the custodial parent. The amount of child support is determined by the Child Support Guidelines, which take into account both parents’ incomes and the amount of time each parent spends with the child, and other factors. The California Department of Child Support Services can provide assistance in calculating and collecting child support payments.
A child support order is a legally binding document issued by a court of law that requires a parent to provide financial support for their child or children until the child reaches the age of majority, or in some cases, until the child is emancipated.
