Harrisburg child support Attorney Gerard Mangieri
Child Support in Pennsylvania
The amount of support a parent is required to pay is determined by the “income shares model.” This model uses a complicated formula that considers a number of factors, including the incomes of the parties, the amount of overnights each party has with the children, and the cost of health insurance and daycare for the children. Additionally, amount of custodial time, potential earnings, and any spousal maintenance payments.
Child support is very dependent on the amount of custodial time you have and it is important that you work with an attorney who knows the law and will advocate for you. If you are making child custody or child support arrangements, or seeking to change a previous arrangement, contact Attorney Mangieri today for a quote.
