Legal Question in Family Law in California
How to determine child support
I can not afford a lawyer and I am going to court for
Child Support. I want to know what the guideline
support should be for my siuation. He thinks that I
should be paying him support. Can you help me
determine guideline support or tell me about a website
that will help me determine it? I am the respondent in
the case. I am the mother of the child, I have my
daughter 65% of the time, my net salary is
$3,333/month and her fathers is $2,136.45/month.
Thank You!

Re: How to determine child support
MOst family courts have a clinic that will assist you in calculating support.
Based on the information you gave it appears that he would pay you a small amount of child support. He should also pay 1/2 of the day care costs incurred so that you can work.
