Re: Child Support

If you reside in NY with the child, you can file a petition for child support. However, jurisdictional issues may arise if the person who is obligated to pay resides outside the state or if the child support issue has been addressed in another proceeding outside the state. Please call me at 212-367-9167 to discuss the facts of your case. I do not charge a fee for the initial consultation.
