Legal Question in Family Law in California
Child Support
My case was recently modified and it states the custodial parent and myself are to split travel expenses 50/50. Everytime their is a plan set forth so I can see my daughter her mother makes matters very difficult and claims due to money porblems she can't send my daughter out to see me. She also reqiures I fly out to pick my daughter up and then do the same on her return. My daughter is now 12 and feels she can fly alone. What can I do? Do I need to hire a lawyer to get her to ablige the court documents or is there another alternative?

Re: Child Support
Consult with an attorney in the county where your child custody order was made. They can give you guidance concerning what local judges would do. I would suggest that if it is required to see your daughter that you pay the costs of travel and then ask for reimbursement from the mother. An alternative is to modify child support with you paying costs of visitation and one half of that cost deducted from your monthly payment. Good Luck, Pat McCrary
