Unmarried Parents & Child Support

Parents, regardless of their marital status, have an obligation to support their children. Likewise, a parent has a right to access to his or her child along the same lines as persons who are married. If you are not married to the other parent of your child, and if you are not receiving the support your child needs, our domestic partnership lawyers in the San Fernando Valley can explain your options for obtaining that support. Every family situation is different, but the determination of child support is nonetheless a regulated area of law. The courts must use a mathematical formula to calculate child support.
