Child Support Law in New York

In most cases, child support is determined by the Child Support Standards Act. New York State child support guidelines are based on income of the parents and the number of children. Base child support payments may also be increased to meet other financial obligations needed to support a child, such as child care, health expenses, and educational needs. I offer clients straightforward representation throughout the process of determining the correct amount of child support payments.

Spousal Maintenance in New York

Spousal maintenance payments maintain the standard of living the dependent spouse was accustomed to during the marriage. The court takes several factors into account when determining the amount. Some of the factors include:

• Income of the spouses
• Property the spouses receive through equitable distribution
• Length of the marriage
• Health and age of both spouses
• Future earning capacity
