Losing your job can substantially affect your ability to pay your bills, rent or mortgage and child support. During a time of economic instability and high unemployment, many fathers and mothers are struggling to make ends meet and make court-ordered child support payments.
Protect Your Rights: Hire a Lawyer for a Child Support Modification
If you have lost your job, speak to our attorneys to pursue a child support modification. Don't make the mistake of trying to make a personal arrangement with your child's other parent. Even worse, if there isn't anything in writing it will come back to haunt you…Judges almost NEVER rely on spoken "agreements" between parents or former spouses. Too often, former spouses try to work out new support amounts on their own, resulting in eventual conflicts and legal action against the person ordered to pay child support.
When you come in to meet with an experienced family law attorney at The Massachusetts Family Law Group, we analyze your financial situation, taking into account your job loss and any other relevant information, and determine if seeking a child support modification is in your best interest. If a significant change in circumstances has affected your ability to pay child support, we can help you pursue a child support modification in your local court.
