As part of a divorce (dissolution of a marriage or domestic partnership) or a parentage action, a court will decide whether one parent will receive financial support from the other parent for the care of the couple's child(ren). This is known as child support.

In California, child support is based on a complex calculation that takes into account income, time spent with the child(ren), and a variety of other factors. Whether a client is paying child support or receiving child support, we are experienced in ensuring that child support obligations are fair and appropriate.

We represent clients in their child support proceedings in San Francisco County, San Mateo County, Marin County, Alameda County, and Contra Costa County.
