The issue of child support comes up when there is a break up of a relationship in which there are children. It refers to any payment made to cover living expenses of such children. Child support generally lasts until minor children reach the age of majority, usually 18, until they graduate from school, or an agreed upon time.
Why a Child Support Attorney Is Important
Often times, the money that the custodial parent (the parent who had physical custody of the child/children) receives for child support is the only means of providing for the child’s needs. It is therefore essential that the issue of child support is handled by a competent family law attorney.
