Tarrant County Child Support Lawyer
Child Support
When you have child support decisions to make and need workable solutions, you need an attorney who will take the time to understand all of your issues, explain all the steps involved and help you to arrive at a just child support determination that benefits you and your child. Numerous factors and calculations are involved in arriving at a fair and reasonable determination for child support. There are strict guidelines that must be followed, and the number of variables involved often make child support a complex matter.
Child Support Issues
A parent’s resources, ability to pay, employment and educational background in addition to weighing one parent’s capabilities against the other’s, all must be considered. Providing for a home, health insurance, perhaps a college education and dividing up responsibilities in a co-parenting arrangement are usually some of the factors involved. A good attorney can view the situation from all angles and may be able to present your case so a judge defers to your attorney’s evaluation.
Whether you are a custodial parent or a parent striving to protect your non-custodial rights, Attorney V. Wayne Ward will put his years of experience to work on your behalf. Together, we will review your finances and present detailed information so the judge has a full understanding of all aspects surrounding your case.
When Child Support Becomes Necessary
While divorce is the most common circumstance where child support must be decided, there are other situations in which child support also becomes necessary. If parents have separated, if there is a lawsuit to determine paternity or if a restraining order has been ruled as a result of domestic violence, parental obligation to support the needs of minor children often becomes an issue.
