Child Support Factors
Attorneys in Denver, Colorado
In Colorado, child support is determined by a formula that takes multiple factors into consideration.
The most important factors are the pre-tax (gross) wages of each parent, the number of overnight visits each parent has with their children, day care expense and health insurance expense.
Other factors that affect child support are the obligations of one parent to support children from a previous relationship, and any special medical or educational needs your children might have.
While the courts have the discretion to deviate from the formula, they typically don’t unless there are extenuating circumstances.
Most child support issues arise when the supporting parent fails to make the required child support payments. In some cases, the child support payments may simply be late. Other times, the supporting parent decides to stop paying child support altogether. If your child’s supporting parent has stopped making the payment he or she owes, you need to contact an experienced child support attorney immediately to discuss your situation.
