Ensuring Children Receive The Financial Support They Need

In California, child support levels are determined using a formula contained in the state guidelines. The formula looks at a variety of factors to arrive at an appropriate child support determination. Factors that are considered in the formula include:

  • Both parties’ gross income
  • The amount of time each parent spends with the child
  • Expenses (health care, education, etc,)
  • Allowable deductions or expenses

While the formula seems very straightforward, it is not. There are opportunities to tailor your individual child support levels to accurately reflect your situation. One common situation where a more detailed approach needs to be taken includes parents who have independent sources of income such as contractors and small-business owners. Interpreting actual income can be a challenge in such situations. There is also the ability to factor in the effect that new children may have on the calculation as well as travel expenses necessary to facilitate custodial times.

It is important that you secure the representation of an attorney who understands the guidelines and how to make them work for you and your situation.
