Aggressive New Jersey Child Support Attorneys

Child Support, College Expenses & Emancipation are issues that all seperated parents must deal with until the children of the relationship are finally emancipated.  In our experience, there are many people that are getting a smaller amount of support than they are entitled to, paying more than they should and paying when they shouldn't have to anymore.  Worst yet, because some waited too long to take action they cannot recoup the money they have lost.  Calling the right lawyer may be your best move in the case.  From Somerset County to Bergen County, we can represent you in any court in New Jersey. 

Child Support 

Child Support is usually paid weekly from the non-custodial parent to the custodial parent. The weekly amount is not a number pulled out of the air by a judge or a hearing officer, but is instead a number derived from a mathematical formula. This formula, known as the Child Support Guidelines, uses numerous figures to arrive at the weekly child support obligation. The primary figures used are the weekly incomes of both parties and the number of overnight visits enjoyed by the non-custodial parent.

If you or the other parent have had a change of income, you may be able to lower your obligation or increase the amount you should receive.  If it has been more than three years since your last recalculation, you may be entitled to a new calculation regardless of any change of incomes for either parent.

College Expenses

As a married couple, your child is on their own to pay for college. However, as a separated parent, the New Jersey court system may order you to pay for your child's college. This creates many issues. Should you and the other parent pay the same amount or should one parent pay more? Should the child contribute anything towards their own college? What if the child can get financial aid? Should you have to pay for Rutgers or a much more expensive Ivy League school? Unfortunately, there are many parents who no longer speak to their children on a regular basis. What impact does this have on the obligation to pay college expenses?

As you can see, there are a lot of issues with regard to college expenses.  Due to the dynamic nature of families and constantly changing law, a simple answer to the above questions is not always available.  However, Jack Venturi & Associates has the dedication, the skill and the experience to fight for you regardless of the circumstances.  We have helped many people get the money they were entitled to or get out from under obligations that were no longer equitable under the circumstances.

Emancipation

If you are paying child support and/or college expenses, you should not expect that these obligations will automatically end.  In order for you to stop you support obligations, you must ask a New Jersey Superior Court Judge to emancipate your child.  Like many aspects of family law, when a child may be emancipated may be difficult to ascertain.  For children who are not in college, are not automatically emancipated at 18 years old, although this is a good starting point.  

For children that are in college, a child who does not go to school full time or who graduates college may be emancipated.  However, this is also not automatic.  Because families are so dynamic, two judges may come to two different decisions regarding emancipation on very similar cases.  Thus, it is important that you get the tough and aggressive emancipation attorneys at Jack Venturi & Associates on your side.  We  back down to no one and we will fight for you!

Regardless of the complexity of your child support or emancipation case or the location of the court, you need representation you can trust to get results.

We are attorneys with the experience, skill, and dedication necessary to protecting your finances and the future of your family.
