Understanding Child Support in Texas
Both Parents are Obligated
In Texas, both parents are obligated to support their children financially. Child support is generally paid by the noncustodial parent (the parent with whom the child does not primarily reside) to help cover expenses such as food, clothing, housing, medical care, and education.
Reviewing Child Support Orders
Child support orders should be reviewed every three years, especially if you are the payee, to ensure they reflect any significant changes in income, cost of living, or the child’s financial needs. If circumstances change before that period, a modification may also be requested.
Modifying Child Support Orders
Life events such as job loss, salary changes, medical expenses, or changes in custody arrangements can significantly affect your child support obligations. Jean Brown Law Firm can assist you in petitioning the court for a modification of child support orders to reflect your current financial situation and the child’s evolving needs.
Enforcing Child Support Orders
If child support payments are not being made as ordered, we can help you take legal action to enforce compliance. Texas law provides various enforcement tools, including wage garnishment, liens, license suspensions, and contempt of court proceedings to ensure support payments are timely and consistent.
