Temecula Child Support Attorney | Temecula Family Lawyers

At our Temecula Law Office, we offer counsel for Temecula families and spouses in the legal aspects of child support. Establishing an order for child support is one of the most important aspects of any divorce proceeding. Payment of child support can come about in one of two ways:

    • Agreed upon through negotiations between the parents (usually with attorneys) and then reduced to writing and court order
    • Decided when a child support order is entered by a court

How you decide to reach an agreement with the other parent for child support will depend on your specific circumstances and often on how well you are getting along with each other. Our law firm can assist you in reaching an agreement, and ensure that your parental rights and the rights of your kids are protected.

California Family Law Court And Child Support

California family courts look at two primary factors when calculating child support;

      • each parent’s income
      • the time spent by each parent with the child/children
Child Support Orders

Child support orders are legally-binding and obligate a non-custodial parent to provide monthly financial support for his or her children. In California, there is a statewide formula that is used to calculate the amount of child support a non-custodial parent owes to a custodial parent.

The child support formula takes into account how much money each parent makes, additional income either parent may receive, how many children are in need of support, how much time each parent spends with his or her children, health insurance expenses, daycare expenses and additional items.
