Child Support/Spousal Support

California Child Support Guidelines and Alimony Attorney

Understanding how child support or spousal support will impact your post-divorce life requires advice by an experienced family lawyer familiar with all the elements that can come into play. At our Fremont and Morgan Hill, California, law offices, attorney Steven E. Springer, has the background and experience to help explain how alimony and child support may apply in your individual situation.

Understanding Child Support in California

Our firm will show you how the child support calculator uses your qualifying financial data, child custody and parenting time arrangements along with other relevant information to determine who will pay and receive support. While the process uses strict guidelines and computer-driven tables to make calculations, our attorney can work with you to develop child support arrangements that provide terms everyone can live with.

How the Law Will Determine Alimony

Spousal support, or alimony, laws in California are not as rigid as support for the children. Factors such the length of your marriage, incomes, role and lifestyle in the marriage, marketable skills and future earning capacity all come into play. Even marital debt determined during property division, can factor into how much, or even if spousal support will be awarded.

Peaceful Resolution through Mediation

Regardless of the alimony or child support arrangements you make, we can help you customize an equitable arrangement through reasonable means before resorting to time-consuming and costly litigation. We encourage the use of mediation methods to resolve support and other family law concerns. Our business background provides us insight into properly valuating a family business for instance, to can help you meet your support obligations.
