Manhattan child support lawyer Juan Luciano releases a new article (https://divorcelawfirmnyc.com/child-support-lawyer/) discussing the NYC child support system. The lawyer mentions that no one enters into a marriage hoping that it will end. It is very important to ensure that an individual has the best possible divorce experience, especially if children are involved.
According to the Manhattan child support lawyer, “Each marital partner comes at divorce and amount of child support from a unique perspective. In many cases, that is one of the reasons for divorce in the first place. But when it comes to co-parenting children during and after a divorce, each partner is tasked with the need to come together to put the children’s needs ahead of their own. This applies equally to both the custodial and the noncustodial parent.”
The lawyer explains that clients often want to know how child support is calculated. Child support is usually determined by both the income and custody situations of the parents. New York State family law mandates that parents support their children up to 21 years old or until they are financially independent.
Attorney Luciano states that child support must be paid by the non-custodial parent to the custodial for the child's benefit. The child support system in New York is based on the number and amount of children.
In the article, the lawyer adds that child support for one child should equal 17% of the combined gross income of both parents. 25% for two children; 29% for three, 31%, 31%, and not less than 35% respectively for four, five, or more children. Every two years, a cost of living assessment should take place.
Furthermore, after the family court has ruled, the noncustodial parent must also pay child support. The noncustodial parent who fails to pay child support may have them enforced by the other parent, with the help of a child support lawyer.
Attorney Juan Luciano also mentions that parents' lives can change and that the child support order may need to be modified. The facts will be examined by a judge who will determine if the changes are warranted and how much.
Lastly, the divorce attorney emphasizes that it is very important to seek the help of an experienced divorce lawyer to ensure that they understand their rights and responsibilities in the case.
