Atlanta Child Support Lawyer
Issues with your Child Support?
If you need to establish child support, modify current child support payments or need to address any issue involving this matter, our firm may be able to help you. We take on a limited number of cases in order to be able to devote the time and attention each of our client's needs in the face of these sensitive, emotionally charged situations. Additionally, we have the legal experience to provide you with the professional representation you need in order to help you reach a positive case outcome.
When a parent is seeking child support they must first show proof of paternity, even if the alleged father is listed on the birth certificate. We can file the proper documents with the courts to obtain a legal order asking that the father of the child submits to a DNA or blood test. Once paternity is shown, then we can legally proceed with a child support request.
There are many reasons why a parent may refuse to pay child support, including:
- Paternity Questions
- Financial Reasons
- Loss of Employment
- Not Allowed to See Child
- New Family
It is important to note that all of the above reasons are just excuses, and when one parent fails to pay child support that has been ordered by the courts, then they can be arrested and sentenced to jail, fines and have their driver’s license suspended.
