Child Support / Arrears in Support

Orange County Child Support Lawyer

The image of deadbeat dads who don't pay child support is not supported by the facts. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, fathers with joint custody pay 90.2 percent of all court ordered child support; fathers with limited visitation rights pay 79.1 percent; and 44.5 percent of fathers with no visitation rights still financially support their children.

In California, the first consideration that goes into the child support formula is the J-factor – the joint custody factor of how much time each parent spends with the child. The more time you spend with a child, the less you will pay in child support. DadsLaw can also make sure that in the child support process, you also get a fair custody order so you get a fair custody order with your child.

Other factors include the income of each parent, child care expenses, health insurance, special medical needs, and other qualified deductions.

As is true in most states, once you have been deemed the father of a child, you are responsible for paying child support until that child is 18 years old (and in some states, even longer). Make sure your support order is accurate and fair. Contact a DadsLaw attorney today.
