Child support is a critical issue in family law, ensuring that children receive the financial support they need from both parents. In Georgia, child support is typically determined by a set formula that considers factors such as each parent’s income, the number of children, and the custodial arrangement. However, every case is unique, and sometimes the standard calculations don’t account for special circumstances, such as extraordinary medical expenses or private education.
Our skilled child support lawyers are here to help you understand your rights and obligations under Georgia law. We assist with:

Georgia uses an “Income Shares Model” to calculate child support, which takes into account both parents’ incomes, the number of children, and other factors such as medical insurance and daycare costs. The court uses a formula to determine the amount of support each parent should contribute.
While the formula is the starting point, there are instances where adjustments may be made for special needs, education expenses, or other extraordinary costs. Our legal team will ensure that your child support order accurately reflects your child’s needs and that you’re paying or receiving the correct amount.
