Child Support

Both parents are responsible for the support of their children, whether the parents are married or not.  When the parents are separated, either parent can file a court proceeding (divorce, legal separation, parental relationship, etc.) to seek payment or support from the other parent.  The amount of support to be paid by one parent to the other is based on established statewide guidelines.   

Attorney Garry J. Bowman, a certified family law specialist, can assist you in determining the guideline amount of support.  Once a court orders child support, it can be enforced by a wage assignment order which directs the employer to deduct the support from the paycheck and send it to the other parent.  Every case is unique and support orders will vary depending on many factors.
