We know California law, and we understand how much financial support affects everyone’s bottom line.

Lawyers Experienced with Child Support and California law

We understand that, while many view the law as making child support a cut-and-dry matter, there are still many points that may be disputed. Divorcing couples often disagree about what income should be included in child support calculations. We ensure that your children will receive the support they are entitled to – or that your child support payments will be reasonable and in accordance with California law.

Circumstances that may result in a change in child support determinations are:

• When there are extraordinary medical costs of either parent or child
• When there is a loss of income, such as an employment layoff or a new medical disability
• When there are special needs of a disabled child
• Insurance premium changes or expiration of COBRA benefits for the child’s coverage
• A change in custody arrangement
• The parties’ agreement to alter support arrangements for personal reasons

If you have questions about your rights or obligations concerning child support, or need legal representation to resolve a child support dispute in a divorce or paternity case, contact the Law Offices of Michelle Evans. We can help you understand your options and rights.

Spousal Support Attorney – Santa Barbara & Ventura Counties Alimony Lawyer

Although the application of spousal support laws changes as financial conditions of both parties in divorce change, alimony is still an important consideration in many California divorces. For many people, it is a point of serious disagreement in their divorce, as one side often argues it is a financial necessity, and the other side argues that the other should become self supporting. Our goal is to work toward a fair resolution of your concerns, with a very responsive and competent approach to the process, whether in court or negotiated outside court.
