Bristol County Child Support Attorney
Family Law Attorney • Child Support • Contempt • Failure to Pay Support
In Massachusetts, child support is determined by a formula outlined in a part of the statutes known as the Massachusetts Child Support Guidelines. The guidelines take into account a number of factors and compute an amount of child support appropriate for the given situation.
Even though the guidelines set forth a strict set of factors and requirements, exceptions are possible, and certain circumstances may allow for a deviation from the child support guidelines. An experienced family law attorney will be able to explain the child support guidelines to you, as well as listen to your unique situation and tell you if a deviation from the guidelines may be possible.
Call 508.402.7095 for a confidential consultation with an experienced Massachusetts family law attorney about child support matters, including child support payments and contempt proceedings for non-payment of child support.
