Family Law: Child Support

Child Support is among the many issues that may arise after a separation or divorce. Parents need to be able to meet the many needs of their children. In many divorce cases or separations, the non-custodial parent (the parent that does not live with the children) provides financial support to the custodial parent (the parent that lives with the children).

It is important to remember that it is not the right of the adult parents to collect child support, but the right of the children to be well cared for. The Courts in Pennsylvania and New Jersey have ruled that the children should benefit from the incomes of both parents. When deciding the terms of the child support arrangement, the Court takes into account factors such as:  the number of children, the income of both parents, and the medical and educational needs of the children.

Contact the experienced family law attorneys at Howland, Hess, Guinan, Torpey, Cassidy, O’Connell & Birnbaum today if you have questions about child support or need help establishing a proper child support arrangement.
