When considering the rules and regulations surrounding child support determination, the legislation changes often. Not understanding these new rules, and how they impact the calculation of child support, can easily mean a difference of tens of thousands of dollars in the average case. If you have questions about child support, it is wise to seek the counsel of an experienced lawyer.
Since 1990, the Orlando child support attorneys at Richard A. Heller, P.A., have helped clients navigate the complex factors associated with divorce. In Florida, child support is largely determined by a calculation. The formula that is used to determine support is built upon several variables, including:
- Number of children
- Income of each spouse
- Daycare expenses
- Health insurance expenses
- Time-sharing schedule
Through a thorough analysis of your, and your spouse's, finances and the needs of your children, we can help you reach an accurate and fair child support amount. While it is true that the support is determined by formula, it is important to have an experienced attorney examine the many variables of your case, to ensure they are accurately portrayed in the calculation. Missing or underestimating a variable can have a dramatic effect on the overall calculation. Schedule a free family law consultation to learn more about how Richard A. Heller, P.A., can help.
