Child Support

Child Support Lawyer in Kansas

child-supportIn Kansas, child support is a very complex and confusing issue. To navigate the child support process, you need a skilled, experienced lawyer to protect your interests. At the law firm of Fletcher & Rohrbaugh, LLP, we are dedicated to helping our clients understand their rights regarding child support. Our lawyers are compassionate and committed, pursuing a resolution to your case as aggressively as necessary.

Child support determinations are very technical and not at all intuitive. Basically, the mother’s income plus the father’s income equals the family income. A table adopted by the Kansas legislature shows the support amount, based on the number and ages of the children. Then a dozen modifiers can come into play, including the cost of health care, the cost of child care, any special needs of the children, support paid to other children, and issues of divided custody or multiple family support. Finally, there may be very substantial problems in figuring out what a parent’s true income really is, particularly where one spouse is self-employed or runs a business.

Our knowledgeable lawyers understand this complex process and all the adjustments that can be made, for and against you. We will work to make sure that the support you receive or the support payments you make are fair for your individual situation.

  • We also handle modifications to child support orders for former and new clients.
