Frequently Asked Questions About Child Support/DCSS In California:
- Yes, you may be able to modify your child support order in California. You must first file a petition with the court that issued the original child support order to do so. If the other parent agrees to the modification, the court will likely approve it. However, if the other parent does not agree to the modification, the court will hold a hearing to determine whether the modification is in the child’s best interests. Give us a call today, and we can help guide you through the process and represent you in court to ensure your rights are upheld.
- The consequences can be severe if you don’t pay child support in Southern California. The state can withhold your tax refunds, garnish your wages, or even put a lien on your property. If you owe a large amount of child support, the state may also refer your case to the district attorney’s office for criminal prosecution. In addition, the court can hold you in contempt of court and order you to pay a fine or go to jail.

- The amount of child support a parent is obligated to pay is typically calculated according to a state-mandated formula. In California, as in most other states, this calculation is based on the incomes of both parents, the number of children involved, and the amount of time each parent spends with the children. Additionally, any health insurance or childcare costs that either parent is responsible for will be factored into the final support amount.
- If a parent falls behind on child support payments, they may be required to pay retroactive child support, which is the amount of money they owe for the period they were delinquent.
