Child Support Attorneys to Get You a Fair Resolution

Child support is an essential part of many divorce and custody matters, involving a legal obligation for a parent to share in the costs of raising a child. Working with an attorney can help make the proceedings smoother. 

At MPL Law, our team can help you arrive at an accurate calculation and ensure compliance with Pennsylvania laws. We also work with those seeking changes in an existing agreement.

How Can York County Child Support Lawyers at MPL Law Assist You?

The family law attorneys at MPL Law have extensive experience negotiating child support. We understand what makes a successful case and how to assist our clients.

Our services can involve helping you with the initial child support order — the court-ordered payment amount — or offering expertise when parents request to change the order. Various factors may require a change, including but not limited to a change in a parent’s income or increased needs of the children. 

Adjusting orders requires a significant change in circumstances. Our attorneys explain what may qualify and help you gather the documentation necessary for your case. We also know how to work with domestic relations offices in PA on matters such as tracking down an absent partner or enforcing child support orders. 

We advocate on your behalf and listen to your concerns to ensure the receiving parent gets everything the child deserves from the monthly payments while providing guidance and support to clients who may be the paying party in a support action.

The Benefits of Hiring an Attorney for Child Support

Hiring a child support lawyer makes the legal process go more smoothly. Here are a few reasons why you might benefit from legal support:

• Advanced knowledge: An attorney will have prior experience in similar cases. They can educate you about the process and applicable state laws so you know what to expect. 
• Legal advice: Each case is unique. A lawyer will evaluate your situation and help you determine the best steps to achieve your desired resolution.
• Child support calculations: Lawyers know the state guidelines for calculating the amount owed. They account for numerous factors beyond income and help you gather the correct documentation to determine support requirements. 
• Protection of rights: By hiring a lawyer, you have a representative who can speak for you in court hearings. This assistance is beneficial if the other parent has hired a lawyer.
