Denver Colorado Child Support Lawyers

Child Support Establishment, Modification, and Enforcement

Families go through many significant changes following a divorce. Dividing property, finding a new residence, and custody issues may be necessary and can be very complicated. When the child resides with one parent, the other parent is ordinarily required to pay child support in Colorado. Child support is compensation supplied by one parent to the other parent to aid in the support of their shared child. Child support ordinarily ends when the child turns 18 or upon completion of high school. The amount of child support will be determined by family court and is based on child support guidelines or an amount determined by the Court to be reasonable.

The cost of raising a child is very expensive, and both the husband and wife are legally responsible for the care of their shared child. In Colorado, child support is generally determined in accordance with statutory guidelines based primarily on the parents' gross incomes and the number of overnights each parent has with his/her children. The child support will aid in providing medical care, education, and other care that is needed for a healthy and proper upbringing. Guidelines for child support may be provided by many jurisdictions indicating what fraction of a parent's income will go toward child support.
