Child Support in Ventura County
How a Board Certified Family Lawyer Can Help
When pursuing a divorce, the last thing you want is to have your child suffer. They do not deserve to be emotionally or financially damaged because of circumstances outside of their control. If you are looking to protect your child and ensure that they receive the support they deserve, a Ventura County family law attorney from Cutter & Lax can help. Without exceptional legal counsel and representation, it is not likely that you will receive the court order that you need to ensure that your child is adequately supported by the other parent.
Why do I need child support?
Family law courts issue court orders for child support that require the one parent-usually the non-custodial parent-to make monthly payments to the parent who is responsible for the child's care. These support payments are meant for the child's food, clothing, health, and education. The amount of this support depends on each parent's income and ability to support the child, but it is still in your best interest to hire a skilled lawyer who can present a strong argument on your behalf. Only then can you win fair support for your child or children. Call Cutter & Lax today to learn how we can help!
