Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona

Re: Child Support

If you have no contacts in Arizona, then Arizona has no ability to enter Orders against you. She would have to initiate in PA. However, yes, Arizona law does allow child support to be ordered even if you did not know about the child, IF it is proven you are the Father.

You cannot avoid support Orders by signing over your rights, unless Mom is willing to AGREE to waive child support. This is a very tricky agreement, and must be handled carefully.

I can explain the issues and procedures better by phone or in person. As you can imagine, there is too much to cover via e'mail. We offer free 1/2 hour consultations, in which we can discuss the matter in more detail.

Please call me directly to discuss the specifics of your case, or contact my assistant Alicia or my paralegal Jennifer to schedule a free 1/2 hour consultation.
