Legal Question in Family Law in Texas

Additional Dependents

My husband pays $1200/mo. child support for 2 kids from his 1st marriage (salary + est.bonus). We now have 3 children of our own. Could we lower the child support and if so, what is the percentage they would use to determine the new amount?

The child support can be modified by proper motion with the court. The percentage guidelines are in the Tex. Fam. Code. This can be found online.
