Reaching the Appropriate Support Agreements in Colorado
In Colorado, child support and alimony are determined largely based on state determined financial figures. However, an experienced family law attorney can help you present appropriate income figures to the court. At the law office of Mustain-Wood, Walker & Schumacher, we have protected our clients' interests in these matters since 1986.
Finances are a leading cause of stress in family law matters. Let us help you reach financial arrangements that meet your needs. Call 303-730-0067 or contact us online to discuss your situation with an experienced lawyer.
Providing for Your Children
Colorado's child support guidelines use an income model to determine how much each parent should contribute for the support of their children. We have two roles in child support cases:
- Run appropriate income figures through the state calculations and give you a realistic idea of what to expect.
- Identify all sources of income to reach an appropriate child support figure. This can be especially helpful if your child's other parent has hidden assets.
It is important to remember that child support arrangements can affect child custody and visitation orders. We will take a comprehensive view of your family law concerns. Explaining all of your legal options, we will help you make informed decisions to protect your family.
Reaching Fair Spousal Maintenance Agreements
Ending a marriage also means beginning a new lifestyle. After a divorce, it is common for one spouse to have a hard time supporting himself or herself. Colorado's alimony laws are designed to give the receiving spouse time to become self-supporting.
Many spouses are able to support themselves after receiving job training. We work with vocational evaluators to determine how employable each spouse will be after the divorce, and to what level each can attain the same lifestyle they enjoyed during the marriage.
Protecting Your Legal Interests
