Child Support
After a divorce, the issues involving children are often the most difficult to resolve. Former spouses typically find it particularly challenging to determine how money should be distributed between them to support their children. A skilled and experienced family law attorney can help create a child support agreement that is fair to both parties and is in the children’s best interest.
If you need assistance with a child support arrangement, you can find the legal help you need at The Law Offices of Elizabeth A. Edwards, LLC. I am an experienced family law attorney. As your attorney, I will help you find solutions to your child support issues that are both effective and efficient, and that protects your interests and the interests of your children.
Creating the Optimal Child Support Agreement for You and Your Family
If you are going through a divorce and you have children, you need to determine a child support arrangement based on a number of factors. Some of the factors that need to be considered include:
- Income of the parties
- Age of the children
- Special needs of the children
- Medical costs/health care arrangement
As your collaborative attorney or mediator, I will work with you to determine what factors are most important regarding your child support arrangement. I work to ensure you create an agreement that is reasonable and fair based on your family’s individual circumstances, without the cost of acrimony and litigation.
If you and your spouse would like to resolve child support issue more amicably, I can help you pursue a cooperative method through either mediation or a collaborative approach.

- Change of income for either party
- Cohabitation of either party
- Special needs of either party
- Eligibility for a new benefit of either party
