Effective Child Support Representation

Helping you make informed, intelligent decisions during difficult times

The Law Office of Douglas P. Earl, P.C., provides guidance to parents in cases involving questions of child support. Typically, these matters are very straightforward, but they can become complex. Either way, we know how to get results because we have 20 years of experience doing just that.

Determining the Amount of Child Support

Pennsylvania law provides for the financial needs of children when families are separated by divorce. The Pennsylvania Child Support Guidelines assist the court in determining support payments. These guidelines look at a variety of factors, including:

  • Income of the non-custodial parent
  • Daycare costs
  • School costs
  • Dentistry expenses
  • Medical expenses

Child Support Arrangements Should Be Fair

The amount of child support can vary greatly, depending on the numbers involved. We will represent your interests and take great care to ensure that the support agreement is reasonable.

In addition to handling child support during divorce, we can represent unmarried parents in child support proceedings.

We Fight for You!

We will work to negotiate a fair child support agreement. Unfortunately, negotiation isn't always an option. Sometimes, cases need to be fought in court.

We have the experience to get results in the courtroom. You can be confident in our lawyer's ability to fight for you.
