Protecting Your Children’s Futures Through Fair Solutions
Child support issues can be one of the most contentious aspects of family law proceedings. At Hamil Scott Law Firm, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive child support services to families across Broward County, West Palm Beach, and South Florida. Our goal is to ensure that the financial needs of your children are met, while also maintaining fairness to all parties involved.
Understanding Child Support in Florida
In Florida, both parents have a legal obligation to support their children financially. The state uses a formula to calculate child support, which considers the income of both parents, the number of children, health insurance expenses, daycare costs, and the amount of time each parent spends with the children. Our experienced attorneys at Hamil Scott Law Firm can help you understand how these factors apply to your situation and what it means for your child support obligations or entitlements.
Key Aspects of Child Support
- Income Shares Model: Florida’s approach to child support considers the combined income of both parents.
- Adjustments for Parenting Time: The amount of time that each parent spends with the child can affect child support payments.
- Additional Expenses: Extraordinary expenses like medical care or special education needs are factored into the support calculations.
