My child’s parent will not pay child support, what action can I take?

The New York City courts take non-payment of child support very seriously. When your child’s parent is refusing to pay child support, you can take legal action against him/her in the form of a violation petition. Our skilled legal team can work with you to secure your children the support they need and deserve, contact us today.

Can my ex move out of the state with our child?

Depending on the terms of your child custody agreement, your ex-spouse may be in violation of your legal contract if they move out of state. Your divorce decree should have the terms of your custody agreement defined and, if one parent is planning a significant move, may need to be modified. If you or your ex-spouse want to relocate, contact our attorneys as soon as possible.

Who pays child support if we have joint child custody?

Even in joint custody situations, one parent still has to pay child support, as laid out by the New York Child Support Standards Act. Typically, the non-primary custodial parent pays support to the primary custodial parent. In cases where there’s an even split of time between both parents, the parent with the higher income is generally considered the non-custodial parent for the purposes of child support. Your New York divorce attorney can explain more, call us today.

What is the purpose of a prenuptial agreement?

A prenup is a contract that you and your future spouse enter into before your marriage. In this agreement, you each disclose all of your property and assets before getting married. When considering a prenuptial agreement, you and your spouse must be completely honest and forthright when disclosing both your assets and your debts. Our prenuptial agreement attorneys can provide you with experienced guidance, call us today.
