Child & Spousal Support

Los Angeles Child Support Lawyer

For divorcing couples, the amount of child and spousal support or alimony they will receive or will need to provide is a top concern. In California, both child and spousal support are calculated based on income, employment and other factors. To navigate within the legal guidelines, ambiguities, special circumstances, and individual concerns, people require the expertise of an experienced child / spousal support attorney. At Stolar & Associates, our child and spousal support attorneys are available to advise you on your options and help negotiate a fair resolution for your family.

The Child Support Guideline

In California, the Child Support Guideline establishes the minimum level of support required for children. The guideline calculates support based on the income levels of both parents. Beyond this, other local guidelines may also impact the amount that is paid or owed. Our attorneys can help you figure out and negotiate the amount you will pay or receive based on these guidelines, as well as advise you on related issues you may be facing regarding prenuptial agreements , employment or income levels.

It’s important to know that either spouse may be entitled to spousal support (alimony) under the California Family Code. The amount of support is determined by several factors, such as length of marriage, the degree to which the spouse requesting support contributed to the ability of the other spouse to provide income, whether young children are present, and others.
