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?

Re: Additional Dependents
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.
