Child Support Modification Attorney

In the years following a divorce or separate child support action between unmarried parties, it’s unreasonable to expect that the child support agreements or court orders are set in stone for the rest of your child’s adolescence. Child support modifications are possible if you or the other parent experience a change of circumstances related to any relevant child support factors such as employment, timeshare with the child, income, tax filing status, health insurance costs, and other specified tax deductions.

Parents with a child support agreement may also wish to address child support add-ons such as uncovered healthcare costs, childcare costs, and extra-curricular expenses for the child. Some categories of these expenses are mandatory child support add-ons and others are discretionary. If your current child support order is missing terms regarding add-ons or circumstances have changed regarding these expenses for your child, schedule a consultation with one of our attorneys to address whether you should bring a modification request to the court.
