Child support is meant to provide for the essential needs of children, needs like food, shelter and clothing. Support can be ordered by a court or it can be negotiated by parents outside of court. It can be paid for children of divorced parents or children of parents who were never married. Child support is typically determined based on the incomes of both parents, on child custody agreements and on other factors.
While all parents want their children to be properly taken care of, child support matters can be difficult to resolve. Since sensitive financial issues often come into play, and since parents may be in disagreement on a number of fronts, it often takes the assistance of an experienced family law attorney to work out acceptable support arrangements.
