Child Support
The amount of child support that is awarded in a specific case is dictated by California law. The two major factors that the law takes into account are each parent's respective incomes and each parent's time spent with the children.
Spousal Support
Alimony orders are more subjectively based than child support orders. A judge will take many factors (earnings, education and age of each party) into account when determining whether or not to award rehabilitative or permanent spousal support orders. We will skillfully argue on your behalf before the court and make sure that your needs are being heard.
Modifications
Substantial gains or losses to income can justify changes to your existing child support or alimony orders. We will go over the details of your situation in order to determine the strength of your case.
