Spoual and Child Support
Families Count on Spousal and Child Support

Approximately 25 percent of children under the age of 18 in the United States reside in single parent homes. Financial stability is a key consideration in the vast majority of cases in which a child lives primarily in the residence of one parent. Issues regarding spousal and child support are commonplace.
Although there exist instances in which parents attempt to negotiate spousal and child support informally, in the vast majority of cases, such an arrangement is destined to fail. And, when that occurs, a tremendous hardship typically befalls the custodial parent -- and the minor child.
When it comes to establishing and maintaining spousal and child support, retaining the services of a skilled attorney is a fundamental step. The legal team at the Law Offices of Michael Kuldiner, P.C., has a significant back ground in working with clients with issues surrounding spousal and child support.
Pennsylvania law establishes child support guidelines. The guidelines establish general parameters to be followed when it comes to determining the amount of child support to be paid in a particular case. With that said, there are instances in which a departure from the guidelines is permitted.
Once a child support order is established, there may occur a circumstantial change warranting an amendment of that decree. In such a situation, either parent may petition the court to seek a change in an existing child support order.
In some divorce cases, alimony or spousal support may be an issue. Alimony or spousal support can be awarded on a temporary basis during divorce proceedings of more permanently in the aftermath of a marriage dissolution. The determination as to whether alimony is appropriate is made on a case-by-case basis.
