Child Support-An Issue Worth Fighting For
When a relationship ends, the shockwaves that ripple through the marriage or long-term relationship are far-reaching and potentially devastating. If children are a part of the equation, they bear the brunt of the hurt and confusion created by a divorce or separation. Whether born in or out of wedlock, our children represent our future selves, and securing their financial support and well-being after a divorce or separation should be a primary issue amidst a sea of vital concerns.
In our role as counselors, mediators and advocates, the Fort Bend County divorce lawyers at the Z and Law Firm are intimately versed in Texas child support law, and will work tirelessly to see to it that your children maintain a solid st andard of living during this truly difficult time.
Under Texas law, child support payments are typically court-ordered. The law considers child support an absolute right of an individual child. Because of this, support payments may not be waived or objected to by either parent.
Payments typically cover all of the costs associated with raising a child, including basic needs such as housing, food, transportation and education. The court will not require an accounting for how the child support payments are spent by the custodial parent. Whether you’re requesting child support payments or thinking that you will have to provide them, the family lawyers at the Zand Law Firm are up-to-speed on the new law, and are ready to help you navigate the intricacies of the support payment process.
There is no reason children should suffer unnecessarily from the break-up of a marriage or long term relationship. The family law lawyers at the Zand Law Firm realize the absolute importance of creating and maintaining child support payments, and will work tirelessly to see that the needs of the children, as well as the working adults who love them, are entirely met.
