Grand Rapids, Michigan, Child Support Attorney
Collecting child support may become necessary for your family’s financial security after a divorce. Whether you are seeking to collect child support or you want to minimize child support obligations, it is important that you consult with an experienced attorney who can look out for your interests. At Mark F. Haslem, P.C., we provide strategic and aggressive representation to protect the rights and financial security of our clients involved in child support disputes.
We defend the rights of our clients to child support or help them seek a modification to an existing child support order where appropriate.
Protecting Your Rights to Child Support
Child support determinations will be based on child support guidelines that consider the income of both parties, the standard of living before the divorce, the needs of the child and other pertinent factors. If you are facing a divorce and have custody of your child, we will take a strategic approach to maximize your opportunities to collect child support. We can also help you seek enforcement actions in the event that you are owed child support from your former spouse.
Child Support Modifications
A modification to child support may be available in the event of a significant change in circumstances that requires an increase or decrease to child support obligations. As your attorney, Mark F. Haslem will aggressively assert your rights to increase or decrease obligations based on your needs. If you have suffered a job loss, serious injury, or other circumstances preventing you from paying child support, you should seek counsel to obtain a modification as soon as possible. Without a modification, you may face serious penalties, including criminal charges.
