Child Support & Spousal Support

Virginia Child Support and Spousal Support Lawyers

In Virginia, child support for a child or children is determined by child support guidelines. This is a formula that takes into account the amount of time that the child spends with each parent and financial factors that include:

  • Income of both parents
  • Expenses of both parents
  • Special needs of a child
  • Medical insurance costs
  • Extracurricular activities
  • Educational expenses

As knowledgeable and financially savvy attorneys, we are meticulous in our investigations into finding hidden assets and sources of income that may not otherwise come to light during a child support or spousal support concern.

The K + M Law Group, LLP, helps clients gain a clear picture of what they might reasonably expect to pay or receive in child support. Our attorneys represent a diverse mix of divorce, civil union and domestic partnership dissolution clients, including:

  • Parents who are both high-income professionals
  • One parent has never worked outside the home
  • One parent owns a business
  • One parent earns significantly more than the other parent

Addressing Support, Support Enforcement and Support Modification

Our law firm is experienced in handling support, support enforcement and support modification issues that arise when:

  • One parent is self-employed with hard-to-determine income or hidden assets
  • Parents want to include a college tuition division agreement in the divorce settlement
  • A parent is not working to capacity during the time of the divorce or following the divorce
  • A parent has large investments that are not seeing the light of day
  • A parent has an inheritance that significantly changes the way that child support was initially calculated

Spousal Support

Just as the evolving nature of the American family has made full custody no longer a mother's guarantee, so too has permanent spousal support gone by the wayside in most cases. It is possible to obtain temporary spousal and child support during the divorce. This is called pendente lite (pending litigation), and it is awarded shortly after divorce papers are filed.

The three basic kinds of spousal support are:

  • Temporary spousal support
  • Rehabilitative spousal alimony, to help a lesser-earning or unemployed spouse get back into the workplace
  • Permanent spousal support in Maryland
