Child Support

St. Louis, Missouri Child Support Lawyer

If you have minor children and are getting a divorce, either you or your spouse will most likely be required to pay child support.

How much? Child support is usually determined by entering numbers into a formula established by a state legislature. In Missouri the proper amount of child support is calculated by completing "Form 14." In Illinois, the formula used is even simpler: one child requires 20 percent of the non-custodial parent's net income; two requires 28 percent; and so on.

Wherever you live, the bottom line from the state's perspective is that no child should be left without the financial resources they need solely because of a divorce.

Divorce and anxiety about personal finances go hand-in-hand. At The Marks Law Firm, L.L.C., we can ease some of those fears by taking time to explain the legal issues, letting you know what to expect and being diligent and thorough in the way we approach our work. Call us at 314-993-6300 to schedule an initial consultation today.

How We Can Help

Because child support is calculated by a formula, the final number is only as good as the data used to get it. As your attorney, The Marks Law Firm will carefully review your financial information and work with experts as needed to make certain that the amount of child support you will receive or be required to pay, fairly reflects your financial situation.
