Child Support

Boise, Idaho, Child Support Attorney

One of the most difficult issues for divorced parents and those who have never been married is reaching a fair agreement regarding child support. The Idaho child support guideline calculator considers each parent's income and the number of nights the child spends at each home to arrive at a base amount of child support one parent will be obligated to pay to the other.

It may seem that the child support calculation is automatic and a parent would have no reason to consult with a lawyer during the process. However, that process only works when the numbers going into the calculator are accurate. It is necessary to know how to count the number of days the child is in residence at each parent's home, what income to report and when income is being concealed. There are some exceptional situations where the court will vary from guidelines when issuing a child support decree.
