You should probably speak to a local attorney to see if they can run a sample dissomaster for you to see what possible child support payments would be. You might be correct in that the payments would go up because of your income. However there may be other factors such as your new child which could help you get a reduced payment. It doesn't hurt to spend a little money to see what possible payments could be.

For self represented individuals you can consult with the family law facilitator self help center at your local court house.

As always please consult a local attorney prior to taking legal action. Good luck. Also please check out my Santa Clara County Family Lawyer blog.
