Child Support in Australia - The important things to know

Separation and Divorce can be a difficult time for couples as well as children.  Here at Guardian Lawyers & Solicitors we will help you through this very challenging time.

We can assist with child support advise, though there are a few things you should know about Child Support in Australia.

 

Assessment

To work out how much child support is paid, a child support assessment is first completed, keeping in mind that every familly can be slightly different and have special needs that will be taken into consideration.

 

Agreement

child support agreement is an agreement that specifies the exact amount of child support that gets paid.  If both parties agree, then the agreement is approved.

 

Payment

When parents separate, one will usually make payments to assist with the support of the child. In the scenario of a parent living overseas, this payment can still be made and received.

 

We know that separation can be a very trying time, and we are here to help.
