Florida Child Support Lawyer

One of the main aspects of divorce when child custody is involved is the question of child support. It is necessary to have a family attorney on your side to help fight your case in court, help decide what level of support will be required by the courts and to determine that it is fair under the law.

Child support is often one of the only predictable aspects of divorce. The amount is often determined after the other aspects of the divorce are decided. In Florida, support is dependent upon the ratio of the net incomes of the parents. From there, a judge can only deviate from that amount by a certain percentage. However, if the non-primary parent has a large percentage of overnight stays than the support can be calculated at a lower rate.

Spencer West with Mitchell & West can help ensure that the child support you are paying or receiving is fair. He will make sure that all necessary incomes are accounted for, subpoenaed and verified, in order to make sure it is fairly determined. He can also aid in helping intentional non-employed parents do not reap benefits that are due to their unwillingness to obtain or keep employment.
