Legal Question in Family Law in Pennsylvania

I have custody of my son approx. 40-45% of the time and his mother has the remaining time. We have a custody agreement through her lawyer that states this that was written approx 5yrs ago. We also have a notarized agreement stating that I pay $450 a month support along with her being able to claim my son on her taxes every year. My question is do I have any recourse to lower my support payments due to the time I have him or is $450 a fair amount? If I take her to domestics will I end up screwing myself by getting charged more support and having less time with my son? Everything works great the way it is now cept the $450 a month. I make $40,000yr also. Please advise and thanks!

40% or more custody would be grounds for a decrease that said, what would be the guideline amount that you would be paying absent the agreement. That is impossible to say with out know Mom's income and what other children there are if any.

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