Albuquerque Child Support Attorneys
You may look at child support as your best friend or your worst enemy, depending which side of the equation you’re on. The attorneys at Cortez Family Law look at child support from the perspective of all those involved.
Child support will initially be set according to the New Mexico child support guidelines. You can calculate your potential obligation at www.nmcourts.gov. Simply follow the links to family law forms and child support worksheets.
If child support has already been established and you are hoping to modify it, you will need to show the court a ‘substantial change of circumstances’ in order to compel the court to modify the support. This may include a new rate of pay, job loss, emancipation of a child or change in insurance benefits or school or day care costs. On the other hand, you and your former partner may simply agree to modify the support.
