California Child Support Guidelines

In California, child support is calculated according to statutory guidelines, based on a number of factors, including the income of both parents, time with custodial and noncustodial parent, and the ability of the parties to provide coverage for health care. At our office, we will review all proposed child support orders to confirm that they comply with the state guidelines. We will also make certain that all appropriate income, including commissions, seasonal income or self-employment income, is properly considered. When appropriate, we can request that the court deviate from the guidelines to suit your individual circumstances.

When you hire us to assist you with a child support controversy, we prepare and work from a checklist, ensuring that you always receive organized and detailed advice regarding your options and the status of your case. We handle all proceedings related to child support, from pendente lite proceedings to establish temporary support pending finalization of your divorce to post-judgment requests for modification of existing child support orders. In addition to representation for either party in post-judgment requests based on hardships such as loss of employment, birth of another child, or illness or injury, we also handle enforcement actions on arrears including requesting or contesting the suspension of driving privileges or business suspensions.

For skilled and experienced representation in disputes involving child support, contact us via e-mail or call us at 562-321-9296. Our telephones are answered 24 hours a day. We meet with clients during traditional business hours and evening and Saturday appointments are available upon request. We accept Visa and MasterCard.
