Making Sure That Support And Maintenance Are Calculated Fairly
- A parent’s gross income
- Spousal maintenance orders
- The number of children in each parent’s home
- Child care expenses
- The costs of medical and dental care
- How long the marriage lasted
- The standard of living during the marriage
- The financial resources of each spouse
- The age, physical and mental health of the spouse requesting support
- The costs of medical and dental care
Although there are child support guidelines, there are circumstances that may require the court to deviate from those guidelines. Further complicating the matter, there are no spousal maintenance guidelines. Our lawyers can help point out exceptions that may affect how much support has to be paid. We have the resources to verify true income and will work to apply the law so that the support amount is calculated fairly and accurately.
Sometimes changes to the amount of support awarded may be in order. We can also assist with requesting modifications of child support or spousal maintenance orders if you or your ex-spouse’s financial circumstances have changed.
