Other than custody issues, nothing can create more stress in a divorce like support issues. Whether you are dealing with child support or spousal support, it is critical that you get an order that is accurate. Although the system is intended to be "plug and play"…IT IS NOT. Support orders can fluctuate dramatically by changing one or two settings on the support calculators. Judges and attorneys may intentionally impute income that you never received and will never receive in the future. Similarly, your year to date income is often inaccurate but that is the most frequently used method of calculating income. These are issues that pro per clients generally miss at the hearing because they are upset about the dollar amount and not paying attention to the numbers used to arrive at that amount. In addition, they may not understand the basis for imputation of income or the arguments against it.
Support is one of the family law areas of practice that having an attorney almost always saves you money in the long run. The support savings/gains almost always result in the attorney's fees being paid back in the long run. Let us advocate for your support needs. Let us ensure that your support calculations are correct and have been maximized.
