Child Support

Atlanta Child Support Lawyer

In Georgia, required child support is set by formulas within the statute. The level of support depends primarily on the adjusted incomes of the parents, though other factors can also affect the amount.

Daniel W. Mitnick & Associates, PC has extensive experience in all aspects of child support. We advise and represent clients in matters involving:

• Determination of the child support payment level
• Modifications in child support
• Enforcement of child support orders
• Collection of back child support
• Paternity as it relates to child support

Call us at 770-408-7000 to arrange for a consultation. A lawyer at our firm can discuss the factors which affect your situation and the ways in which we may be able to help you achieve your child support goal.

Child Support and the Law

During the divorce process, the judge could issue a temporary child support order. At the time of the divorce decree, the judge will issue a final child support order, which can be modified later based on material changes in circumstances. Unless presented with other evidence, a judge will tend to set the final order based on the terms of the temporary order, unless settled by consent of the parties.

To protect your rights and ensure that support is set at the right level, you need effective representation at all stages of the divorce process and beyond.

We can take action in court to obtain a modification in the child support level in accordance with the law subject to a material change in circumstances. Our attorneys can also represent you in enforcement order hearings to achieve your goals.
