Child Support Lawyer in Palm Beach Gardens, FL

Child support involves more than just numbers on a spreadsheet. It’s about providing your children the means to thrive and pursue their dreams. When calculating child support in Florida, several factors come into play:

Income Matters:

Florida follows an income shares model, considering the income of both parents when calculating child support. Ryan and his team work closely with you to assess your income accurately, and the other parent’s income is reflected accurately in the calculation, including salary, bonuses, commissions, and other relevant sources. We aim to ensure a fair and accurate calculation that reflects your financial situation.

Child-Related Expenses:

Raising children involves additional expenses beyond the essentials. From healthcare and childcare to education costs, Ryan advocates including these crucial factors in the child support calculation. Considering these expenses, we aim to provide your children with the necessary resources to grow and succeed.

Number of Children:

The number of children involved plays a significant role in determining the overall child support amount. As the number of children increases, so does the support obligation. Ryan and his team will carefully consider this factor, ensuring that the child support arrangement meets your family’s unique needs.

Navigating the legal landscape of child support in Florida can be overwhelming. That’s where Ryan comes in. Mr. Tarnow is dedicated to providing you with expert guidance through the Florida Child Support Guidelines:

Personalized Approach:

While the guidelines offer a standard framework for child support calculations, Ryan knows each case is unique and will diligently review your situation and resolve any deviations from the guidelines when needed. Ryan’s priority is to make an arrangement that works best for your children’s needs.

Protecting Your Rights:

As your advocate, Ryan fiercely protects your rights and responsibilities as a parent. In Florida, each party is responsible for paying child support, but depending on many factors, only one parent pays the other parent actual support payments. Ryan and his team ensure your obligations are met while maintaining parental rights.

Understanding Duration:

Understanding the duration of child support is crucial for planning and financial stability. In most cases, child support obligations continue until the child reaches the age of 18 or graduates from high school, whichever comes later. However, exceptions exist for children with special needs. Ryan will provide clarity and guidance regarding the timeline, keeping you informed at every step.

Enforcing Child Support Orders: Advocating for Your Children

When child support obligations are not met, it can significantly impact your children’s lives. Ryan and his team are committed to advocating for your children’s rights and utilizing the enforcement mechanisms available in Florida:

Tenacious Enforcement:

Mr. Tarnow leaves no stone unturned in pursuing child support payments. Through measures such as wage garnishment, license suspension, and legal action, he will fight to ensure your children receive the financial support they deserve.

Compassionate Support:

Ryan understands that child support matters can be emotionally challenging for families. Ryan and his team provide compassionate support and guidance, ensuring you feel heard and supported throughout the process. He is here to help ease your worries and help you find a favorable solution.
