When parents separate or divorce, ensuring that their children receive appropriate financial support is crucial. This process, known as child support, can be complex and emotionally charged. At The VanNoy Firm, we understand the importance of securing your child’s future and are here to help you navigate the legal intricacies surrounding child support in Ohio. Trust our Dayton child support lawyers for compassionate guidance throughout the process.Â
Child support is designed to provide for a child’s basic needs, including food, clothing, shelter, education and medical care. Both parents share this responsibility, regardless of their marital status. The primary aim is to maintain the child’s standard of living and ensure their well-being, even after their parents have separated. Understanding the nuances of child support calculations and enforcement is essential for any parent involved in a custody arrangement.
Ohio follows stringent guidelines to calculate child support, ensuring fairness and transparency. The amount is usually based on each parent’s income, the number of children requiring support, and the amount of time each parent spends with the children. Here’s a closer look at the key factors involved:
If a parent is found to be underemployed or unemployed voluntarily, the court may impute income based on their earning potential and job opportunities in their area.
Child support is closely tied to custody arrangements. In cases where one parent has primary physical custody, the other parent typically pays child support. Even if custody is shared equally, the parent with the higher income often provides financial support to balance the children’s standard of living between both homes.
Circumstances can change, necessitating modifications to existing child support orders. Significant changes in either parent’s financial situation, employment status or the child’s needs can justify a review and adjustment of the support amount. The VanNoy Firm can assist you in petitioning for modifications to ensure the support order reflects your current reality.
