Child Support Laws in Florida

By Tim Beachum


Child support laws in Florida is reasonably straight forward. However if you're not conversant with the elementary rights of child support, things can get a little dangerous. Child assistance is one of the few areas of family law that may intersect with criminal law. If you are a Florida resident and you are facing some child support challenges this draft is a complete must read for you. Read every word, print out this essay if you have got to. The point is read it thoroughly.

About 100 years or so there was something called a debtors prison. If you owed a debt to someone, you might be arrested and thrown in prison for lack of payment. Though those practices are banned, it still is practiced in the state of Florida when it comes to child assistance. Florida has one of the most serious penalties in the U. S. for non-payment of juvenile support.

As far as the calculation of child assistance payments, everything is straight forward in the state of Florida. You can find out more about how the payments work by citing the juvenile support guidelines of Florida. It's also good to notice the guidelines are just that - guide-lines. There are a numerous range of reasons that you might need to wander from the rules and at the end of the day its all up to the judge.

If you're ordered to pay child support you are making an 18 year commitment. If you need to happen to fall behind on your payments your live can and often will be turned the other way up. It the majority of child assistance cases it is generally the child that at last ends up getting cheated.

Some non-custodial elders think that juvenile support will take their present expenses under consideration. In the state of Florida this is the farthest from the honest truth. The full amount of child support is calculated from the joint income of both father and mother. The good news is that you can have the amount of child support that you're being charged reduced.
