Achieving Your Child Support Goals
The Wess Law Firm, P.C. handles all types of issues relating to child support, including the determination of the child support level, modifications in child support and enforcement of child support orders.
Are you receiving too little child support? Are you paying too much? In our practice, we frequently answer these questions and others like it.
In Alabama, the child support level is determined by statutory guidelines, and is based on the incomes of the parents, the child's residency time with each parent and other factors. Once these factors are plugged into the equation, determining the child support level can be fairly straight forward. The amount of support that a party pays, however, is not necessarily set in stone.
Our firm has extensive experience in child support and child custody matters and we will work diligently to resolve your issues as quickly and efficiently as possible.
Child Custody and Visitation
Unlike child support, there are no set guidelines when it comes to custody and visitation. The court will consider many factors, but in the end it all comes down to what it determines to be the "best interest of the child".
We have handled a wide range of cases involving child custody matters — some straight-forward and some complex. We can provide advice and representation regarding:
- Joint custody and sole custody
- Visitation and parenting time
- Modifications in custody and visitation
- Parental relocations
- Termination of parental rights
- And other matters
Our attorneys have had much success resolving custody and visitation cases through negotiation and mediation. These techniques can produce workable and fair outcomes that reduce emotional stress and preserve family relationships. In other cases, nothing less than vigorous representation in court will do.
In your case, The Wess Law Firm, P.C. will work to achieve your goals while protecting your rights and interests at all times.
