New York Child Support Laws Are Confusing. Let an Attorney Explain Them to You.
Laws relating to child support obligations are uniform throughout all counties in New York. The legislature leaves it up to the individual counties to deal with child support collections and distributions. Support is usually determined by a state formula that inputs very simple calculations. In many cases involving single or two-income families, a lawyer isn't necessary. However, when disputes arise over voluntary levels of additional payments, non-traditional income and debts, an experienced attorney can be an important advisor.
The law offices of Jonathan D. Katz is ready to answer all of your questions relating to child support, child custody and divorce. I invite you to learn more about child support laws on this page.
