Whether you are seeking to establish, modify, or enforce child support payments, our experienced legal team is here to guide you through the process with compassion and expertise
Understanding Child Support in Tennessee
In Tennessee, child support is determined by state guidelines that consider various factors, including:
- The income of both parents
- The number of children involved
- Parenting time (custody arrangements)
- Healthcare and childcare expenses
- Any special needs of the child
The Tennessee Child Support Guidelines aim to provide a fair and consistent approach to financial support, ensuring that children receive the resources they need for a stable upbringing.
Establishing Child Support
If you are seeking to establish child support for the first time, our team can help you navigate the legal requirements and ensure a fair calculation based on state guidelines. We will work diligently to advocate for your child’s best interests while protecting your financial rights.
Modifying Child Support Orders
Life circumstances change, and so can child support obligations. If you have experienced a significant change in income, job loss, increased medical expenses, or a shift in custody arrangements, you may be eligible for a modification. Our legal team can help you petition the court for adjustments to your current support order.
Enforcing Child Support Orders
If the other parent is failing to make court-ordered child support payments, legal action may be necessary. Tennessee law provides several enforcement options, including wage garnishment, tax refund interception, license suspension, and even legal penalties. We can assist you in enforcing the court’s order to ensure your child receives the financial support they deserve.
