Legal Question in Family Law in Pennsylvania

child support

My husband pays child support for a child living in Pittsburgh, PA. He has just lost his job. Can he get a modification to his child support to lower his payment at this time? Can he get a modification for a lower payment if he is unable to find employment at the same salary level he was once at? We were told a modification for reduction could only be filed if his job was eliminated, not if he was fired. Is that true?

Re: child support

I'm not sure what it would cost to file for a modification in Pittsburgh. Its $15 in Harrisburg but the cost vary by county. In any case it will be a lot less then the get out of jail amount if you don't at least attempt to modify.

If you have any questions feel free to contact me. the initial consultation is free.
