Child Support

Parents are required to provide their children with financial support. In Illinois, courts often use statutory guidelines to determine child support awards, which may be modified based upon changes in the net monthly income of the parties. Courts often order additional payments for children’s expenses such as child care, education, out of pocket medical costs, and extracurricular activities.

Jennifer L. Lavin, P.C. understands the importance of securing child support for parents and can help to obtain and modify child support orders and initiate enforcement proceedings if a parent has fallen behind on child support payments. Please contact me at (312) 919-8857 to schedule a complimentary consultation to discuss how to meet your child support needs.
