Phoenix Child Support Attorney
The question for most parents after child custody has been decided is how much child support the custodial parent will receive. Our Phoenix child support attorney will assist clients in getting the maximum amount they are entitled to by law. With almost ten years of experience in dealing with child support modification decrees and child support related issues, the Arizona based law office of Rebecca L. Owen, PLLC, can answer these often complicated questions quickly.
What determines child support?
In the state of Arizona, there are a number of factors that the state and courts look at to figure out who pays child support, and how much is paid. Among these are:
Income of both parties
If alimony/spousal maintenance is being paid, and if so, how much
Whether one, or both, of the parties have other children that they are required to support
Who is paying health insurance for the children
Who is paying the child care of the children
Who has custody of the children, and for what length of time
Paternity
Child support generally has to be paid until a child reaches the age of 18. If income or circumstances change over the course of a child's life, a parent can request a child support modification to either increase or decrease the amount of support being paid. The Phoenix child support lawyer in our office aids clients in determining whether a modification is a viable option and if so will assist the client in the modification process.
