Legal Question in Family Law in Mississippi

I am going through a divorce. My son has a neuromuscular disease and is farley costly from a medical stand point. My ex found an attorney and we are just going with a standard divorce. However they have entered into the papers that I will cover him on insurance and he will pay a flat fee of $300 a month in support. Right now he is paying the mississippi state standard of 14% which comes to 315. I questioned this with him and he called the attorney and said she told him that in mississippi it is standard to enter a flat amount. Is this correct? I feel like if the state has adopted a percentage then it should be fine to enter that percentage into the papers.

That is not correct and why you need an attorney to represent YOUR interests. There is MUCH more he owes in support. Get an attorney now
