In today's challenging times it is more important than ever for individuals paying or receiving child or spousal support to act quickly when their financial circumstances change. Child and spousal support are basically "income-driven". When one party's income goes down, due to a job loss, pay cut, temporary illness, etc., it is essential to immediately consult with a San Diego divorce attorney such as Steven M. Bishop, with over 33 years of experience, to determine your legal rights. A party who delays filing a motion to modify their child or spousal support obligation could lose thousands of dollars.

In the same fashion, if a party is receiving child or spousal support and they become aware the payor has received a pay increase or obtained a higher paying job, it is crucial to get informed legal advice immediately to determine if you are entitled to an increase in support benefits.  

In California, the Family Court utilizes a statewide formula to calculate child support and estimate spousal support. An experienced expert such as Certified Family Law Specialist Steven M. Bishop can quickly determine your support rights and provide meaningful direction anmd guidance which could save or earn you thousands of dollars.
