An existing child support order can be modified if you are able to show a significant and continuing change of circumstances. And what I mean by that, is that you have a change in parenting time, in income, expenses, perhaps the insurance covering the child has changed, something that is related to child support that has changed. There’s basically two ways to go about doing it. One is what I’ll call a regular petition to modify child support. The other is a simplfied way of doing it. If you are able to show that the changed circumstances have the effect of a 15% change in child support, you can file your petition and if the other side does not respond to it, the change is automatic. The court signs an automatic order. If you have any other questions about changing a current order of child support, please contact me at Hildebrand Law. The phone number is, (480) 305-8300. Thank you.
To modify an existing child support order, contact an Arizona divorce attorney.

You can modify an existing child support order if you can show the court a substantial and continuing change of financial circumstances. What does that mean? Well, there’s a whole lot of factors that go into modifying a child support order. You can be spending more or less time with your child. You can be making more or less money. We’ll have to go through the list and see what the guidelines allow you to consider when modifying a child support order, but the general rule is 15%, up or down, that would change to make the change of circumstances substantial and continuing. But, if you’d like more information or want to talk to me more about modifying a child support order, feel free to give me an email.

Child support in Arizona is controlled by Arizona revised statute, title 25 section 320, which is commonly referred to as the Arizona child support guidelines. The child support is determined from utilizing certain factors:

Visitation significantly effects child support. For example, if two divorcing parties, a divorcing party agree that their going to be adult about recognizing that a child needs both parents and agree therefore to share visitation, custody of the kids, they will have a week on week off or they’ll have five-two-two weekly application of time and whatever they decide is going to really effect visitation. A 50-50 sharing of the time with the kids with a situation where two people make almost the same amount of money a month, will result in no child support.
If the father however has every other weekend with one day in the intervening week, one night in the intervening week, he’s gonna have substantial child support, particularly if he makes substantially more money, earns more than the mother does. So, it’s a complicated situation, one of the most difficult ones that parents have to make and we’re always there to help them if we can.

Hi, I’m Mitch Reichman. I’m a board certified family law specialist and I practice at Jaburg and Wilk.
The way a client can make the most of their first meeting with me is to be organized and to bring me basic general information. So I want a simple statement of their assets and their liabilities. I’d like to see the most recent three years of tax returns. And I recommend the client bring notes. At least bullet points of the topics the client would like to cover in that first meeting.
I don’t ask them to bring a lot of documents to the first meeting. We’re going to follow up and gather a lot of documents during the process. Certainly I would not want the to bring a box of records to the meeting. It would be very inefficient, very expensive for the client for me to be thumbing through a box of records in that first meeting.
We’re looking for broad strokes of information. We want to identify in that first meeting what the assets are and what the liabilities are. To find out about their children. To know about income and expenses. To see if someone is going to be needing spousal maintenance for example. So just broadly identify the topics we’re going to need to address. We’re going to gather a lot of details along the way, but that wouldn’t be a useful way to spend our time the first meeting.

A wage assignment is something that the court does when the payer of child support is employed, if he has a job, an employer, somebody who pays him salary twice a month or once a month. The court will issue an order to his employer instructing him to deduct the amount of child support on the court’s order for child support from his salary each time a check is written to him.
So it can be twice a month, once a week, once a month and any changes that the employer wants to make, needs to make has to go through the court. If anyone has any difficulty with that, they are free to call us anytime.

Parenting time is perhaps the largest factor affecting the amount of child support a non-custodial parent will pay. The more parenting time days one spends with the children, the bigger the discount off the presumptive child support amount. For more information, call me, Greg Davis at Davis Limited, (602) 279-1900.

When a parent loses his or her job, the answer is nothing. Nothing happens to child support. A parent who loses his or her job continues to be obligated to pay the court ordered amount of child support, whether or not a parent is working, a parent has an increase in income, a decrease in income, it’s that parent’s obligation to modify child support and that parent should seek legal advice immediately upon losing his or her job. Call me for more information. Greg Davis, Davis Limited, (602) 279-1900.

I want to talk to you today about how you calculate child support in Arizona. The Arizona child support guidelines in turn, use what is referred to as an income shares model for the calculation of support.
We need to know both parent’s monthly gross income, from which a basic child support amount is derived from the guidelines and to that number we add in the cost of health insurance, the cost of daycare and if the children are in private school, then the private school expenses. Then we determine which of the two parents is a primary custodial parent.
