Upper Saddle River Support Modification Attorneys
While child support is determined mostly according to specific state guidelines, there are unique considerations in each divorce case which must be taken into account. Hiring a skilled family law attorney can help you understand your rights and obligations regarding child support.
At the law office of Michael E. Spinato P.C., we understand that each family law case is as unique as the family involved. We represent diverse families throughout Bergen County, New Jersey, and the surrounding areas with a variety of family law issues. With more than 30 years of experience, we use our knowledge to develop creative solutions that address your individual needs and concerns.
Innovative Child Support Solutions and Honest Counsel
For the most part, New Jersey child support guidelines follow statutory principles according to several factors. Such factors include:
- The individual income of each parent or potential income a non-working parent could expect to obtain
- The number of children in the family
- Whether alimony is also to be awarded
As your legal advocates, we can help you understand what potential child support obligations will look like given your current circumstances. We examine the factors involved in your divorce and make provisions for things like medical insurance, child care expenses, custody and parenting time arrangements, and other concerns.
Most family law judges do not deviate from statutory child support guidelines unless there is a substantial reason to do so. We will examine the unique factors of your case and give you honest advice upfront so you can set realistic expectations and goals.
We take a forward-thinking approach to every case we handle. Our goal is to help you find innovative solutions that protect your individual rights and the best interests of your children.
Modifying Child Support
You may be able to modify an existing child support agreement if there has been significant change in circumstances such as job loss, disability or a similar event. We can help you understand your rights and options for pursuing child support modification .
