Child Support
The distribution of child support is derived from a formula that is based upon Maryland's Child Support Guidelines. The guidelines set forth a mathematical formula by which to calculate child support based on a proportion of each parent's income.
The Child Support Guidelines consider each parent's gross income, the cost of medical insurance for the minor child, any work-related daycare expense as well as any other child support the non-custodial has been ordered to pay for other children not related to the case.
If a child spends 128 or more overnights with each parent, a different formula is used to calculate child support which results in a reduction of child support owed to the primary custodian.
We can help you understand what expenses you have that are considered under these guidelines and make sure your rights and the rights of your children are protected.
Modification
If there have been significant changes to the financial situation of you or your former spouse, you have the right to consider support modification. Your current plan is based on certain economic factors. If those factors have changed, so should your plan. An experienced child support attorney can help you maintain a fair support agreement.
