Establishing Child Support

Child support is determined by a set of guidelines, taking into account a number of factors, including:

• the number of children
• the income of each parent
• the needs of the children

Calculating child support can become more complex when a parent is self-employed or has hidden income. Our attorneys can help you with all aspects of establishing child support, so your rights and your child’s rights are protected.

Child Support Modifications

If circumstances warrant a change in child support orders, our attorneys can petition the court for a modification of orders. Likewise, if your ex-spouse is seeking a modification that would be unfavorable, we can help you defend against it. Many people do not even realize that they may be entitled to a modification. It is important to consult with an experienced attorney to fully understand your rights and to what you may be entitled. At the Law Office of Smith & Horwitz, we often run guideline calculations for clients to help them understand these rights under the Pennsylvania child support laws.

Child Support Enforcement

If one parent does not fulfill his or her obligations regarding child support, the other can take legal action to have orders enforced. Whether you are the paying or receiving spouse, it is important to protect your rights in these matters. An experienced lawyer can make sure that you know your options and fight to get you the child support to which you are entitled.
