Pennsylvania Child Support Guidelines
The state of Pennsylvania has child support guidelines that judges must consider when issuing a child support order. The child support guidelines require the court to consider the net income and earning capacity of each party.
Child Support Modifications
A parent seeking an increase in child support or a decrease of their child support obligation must prove that there has been a significant change of circumstances since the time the previous child support order was issued. A job layoff, pay decrease, pay increase, decreased child care costs, increased child care costs or other financial factor may constitute a significant change of circumstances.
If you are paying too much support because of a job layoff, decrease in pay, or other financial challenge, I can help. Contact my law office today for a free consultation. I can review the facts of your case and help you determine if you have a basis to obtain a modification of your existing child support obligation.
