Child Support

Orlando Child Support Lawyer

When parents separate prior to divorce, they both remain responsible for supporting their minor children. This is also true for unmarried couples who have a child together. Every parent has an obligation to provide for their children. Failure to do so can have severe legal consequences that will affect virtually every aspect of your life.

At The Law Offices of Wade P. Luther, P.A. in Orlando, a child support lawyer with nearly 10 years of law practice and trial experience will counsel you on your rights with regard to child support. We have experience with child support issues that arise from divorce and paternity cases. We understand that the law can be complicated for both sides. We are here to help.

A child support order will be issued in situations where parents cease to use shared income to financially support their child(ren), typically incidental to divorce. A temporary child support order may be established while your divorce is being finalized so that your children will be assured support while you and your spouse are separated.

How is Support Determined?
The guidelines used to determine child support in Florida consider each parent's individual income and the specific needs of the child. As with child custody, the court's decision will always reflect the child's best interest. The purpose of support is to allow the child to enjoy a standard of living similar to that enjoyed when the parents were together.

It is important that you contact an experienced Orlando child support lawyer early on. You need to know your rights and obligations from the outset to avoid problems in the future. An attorney can counsel you on special circumstances that warrant the legal modification of a child support order.

Child Support Enforcement Attorney
Has your ex-spouse failed to comply with a child support order? If so, they have breached the terms of an important court order or marital settlement agreement. You may wish to bring a child support enforcement action to collect unpaid child support. Call 407.835.9900 for information about how we can help.
