Protecting what matters most

Child Support

The team of family lawyers at Schnauer & Co (SCO) will provide expert guidance and assistance when it comes to child support matters.

  • Establishing Child Support: Our lawyers can help file a petition for child support and request a court order, ensuring that the process is handled correctly and efficiently.
  • Determining Support Amounts: We can assist in calculating the appropriate amount of child support based on income, custody arrangements, and other relevant factors.
  • Enforcement of Orders: If the other parent fails to pay child support, our lawyers can take legal action to enforce the order and ensure payments are made.
  • Modifying Orders: If there are significant changes in circumstances, such as a change in income or custody, our lawyers can help modify existing child support orders to reflect the new situation.
  • Paternity Issues: Our lawyers can assist in establishing paternity, which is often a necessary step before child support can be ordered.
  • Negotiation and Mediation: We can facilitate negotiations and mediation between parents to reach an agreement on child support without the need for a contentious court battle.
