Setting Child Support
As a major component of the divorce process, child support is one of the biggest and most hard-fought discussions. However, Florida uses a standard calculator to decide the appropriate amount of support. This calendar takes into account the following:
- Income from both parents
- Resources of both parents
- Where the child spends most of their time
- Expenses, such as food, education and medicines
Once these issues are reviewed by the judge and entered into the child support calculator, to come up with what is considered the fair amount.
