Lombard Child Support Attorney

Child Support Attorneys Serving DuPage County and Surrounding Cities

Issues related to child support are often among the most contentious matters disputed in family law cases. In many cases, one party will feel as though either too much or too little financial support for the child has been ordered. At Mevorah & Giglio Law Offices, our family law attorneys are experienced in negotiating child support from both sides of a divorce case, as well as in paternity and guardianship situations. We analyze each case individually to determine what level of child support is appropriate, and we work closely with our clients to ensure that their children's ongoing needs are net.

Determining Child Support Obligations in Illinois

Illinois statutes offer guidelines for calculating the child support obligations of a parent based on the income earned by both parents, the number of children being supported, and each parent's amount of parenting time. These guidelines, however, are influenced by numerous other factors, including but not limited to:

  • Medical and educational expenses
  • Child care costs
  • Special needs of the child
  • Other financial obligations, such as spousal support
  • Financial hardship of the parties

Modifications to Child Support Payments

If the financial circumstances of one or both parents changes after child support has already been determined, the orders can be modified. Post-decree modifications typically require a substantial change in circumstances, however. For example, if the paying parent loses his/her job, that parent may be able to have child support payments reduced temporarily or permanently. Our team of family lawyers is experienced in assisting with child support modifications for both paying parents and child support recipients.
