Cincinnati Family Law Child Support Lawyers

Spousal Support Attorneys in Ohio & Kentucky

Child support and spousal support are serious financial obligations, and the support determinations made in a divorce or other family law case can have significant long-term consequences for both the parties required to pay and for the receiving parties.

At the family law firm of Barron Peck Bennie & Schlemmer, our Cincinnati child support lawyers and spousal support attorneys help clients pursue fair and appropriate support determinations. We work closely with our clients to help them pursue their individual goals.

Pursuing Fair Child Support & Spousal Support

In a divorce or paternity case, one parent may be required to pay child support to the other parent based on the state child support guidelines. These guidelines take into account factors such as each parent’s income, each parent’s share of custody, and special expenses.

Spousal support — commonly known as alimony — is also available in some divorce cases when one party has become financially dependent on the other. The rules governing spousal support are generally less rigid and more discretionary than the child support guidelines.

Our family law firm also helps clients pursue formal modification of existing support decrees. If you believe that your obligations should be reduced or that the support you are receiving should be increased, we can help you explore and pursue your options.

Whether you are involved in a divorce or you need assistance with a support issue for any other reason, our attorneys can help. To schedule a consultation to discuss questions and concerns, please contact us at 513-721-1350 or by e-mail.
