Child Support and Alimony

Arizona Child Support Attorney

Because child support amounts are calculated by a strict formula, it is extremely important that the income statements, the tax returns, the child care expenses, the health insurance costs, and all the other relevant financial figures that are put into that equation are accurate.

At the Law Offices of Wendy Raquel Hernandez, P.C., we help our divorce clients compile and document the information they need to ensure that the child support amount set by the court is not too high or too low. In cases where the parties were not married, it may be necessary to have a child support order in place. Our office can obtain a court order for DNA testing to determine who the father is and whether support is necessary. In addition to these services, our child support practice also involves handling post-divorce issues such as obtaining modifications and the enforcement of support orders.

Phoenix Spousal Support Lawyer

Typically, if a marriage has lasted less than four years it is very unlikely that alimony will be awarded. To qualify for spousal support in Arizona, you must meet at least one of the criteria outlined in Arizona Revised Statutes 25-319 (A). If one of these criteria is met, accurate documentation of financial information and the marital lifestyle is essential to a fair result.

Our law office represents spouses on both sides of this issue in the Phoenix Metro Area and throughout Arizona. Our practice includes both temporary and permanent alimony issues, as well as post-divorce modifications and the enforcement of existing support obligations. Contact our law office to learn more.
