Why is an attorney necessary for child support?
While calculating child support may seem easy, this process is rarely free from complications. The state guidelines are just the beginning of the process, and your attorney will work to ensure you are paying or receiving the proper amount by:
Ensuring temporary child support is established while the divorce is ongoing.
Helping you interpret the guidelines.
Gathering all of your financial information to ensure it is accurately presented.
Helping make modifications after the divorce is finalized if necessary.
