Dayton Ohio Child Support Help Lawyers

Calculating Child Support Payments

During a divorce, dissolution, or separation or after establishment of paternity, a lawyer must calculate the amount of child support owed. In Ohio, child support laws governing child support payments are fairly clear; a lawyer can assist in calculating the amount of child support owed. The lawyers of Crossman & Mesaros, LLC can help advise and then advocate for you in setting provisions in the Child Support Computation Worksheet, which helps guide the judge in the amount of child support to establish.

Child Support Recovery

All too often, parents who are owed back child support must fight to get the money they need to support their children. Our attorneys are experienced and aggressive litigators, and can help with the enforcement of child support agreements. Failing to pay child support can be considered both contempt of court and can be a criminal matter, all involving jail time and fines. The Crossman & Mesaros, LLC child support lawyers can assist both the parents seeking to collect court ordered support as well as the parent who needs assistance in the defense of claims for failure to pay.

Modifications to Child Support Agreements

Any enforceable modifications to child support orders must be made through the courts. Modifications can be made for any reason, such as job loss, a major financial setback, a change in the child’s needs, a disability on the part of one of the parents, etc. The parent requesting the modification must prove the need for the change. Our child support lawyers can help either parent effectively demonstrate their case.
