Southlake Child Support Lawyers

How is Child Support Calculated in Texas?

Once conservatorship and visitation have been decided, courts in Texas will order the non-custodial parent (the parent without primary possession of the child) to make child support payments.

These financial contributions ensure that your child is well cared for, going toward:

  • Food
  • Shelter
  • School tuition
  • Medical expenses
  • Extracurricular activities

At Justice Law Firm, we represent both custodial and non-custodial parents to make sure appropriate child support payments are ordered. We understand that parents who are forced to pay too much and parents who do not receive enough support are both in difficult situations. That is why we develop strong, tailored legal strategies to help you achieve a fair and effective child support plan.
