Child and Spousal Support and Divorce

Child support and spousal support, or alimony, are issues that must be resolved in a divorce. Whether it is a contested or uncontested divorce, you and your spouse will need to attempt to come to an agreement regarding alimony and child support amounts. If you cannot agree, the court will determine the amount for you after your divorce litigation, usually based on a number of factors.

A divorce attorney will be able to help you understand what amount of spousal support or child support you may be eligible to receive or that you may be asked to pay. With the help of an attorney, you may be able to avoid paying an amount that is too high or is based on inaccurate information. On the other hand, your divorce attorney can help you take the steps necessary to ensure that you receive alimony or child support.
