How Texas Law Determines Child Support

Child support in Texas is governed by state guidelines designed to make sure that children receive the financial support they need and deserve. 

Considerations that go into whether one parent will pay or receive child support and how much include the following:

  • The income of both parents - Courts examine the paying parent's net resources, including wages, business income, and other earning sources. 
  • Custody and visitation arrangements - The amount of time each parent spends with the child plays a significant role in determining their financial obligations.
  • State guidelines - The Texas Family Code provides specific formulas for calculating child support based on the number of children and the paying parent’s income.
  • Additional consideration - Courts may also consider factors such as healthcare costs, childcare expenses, and special educational or medical needs. 

At Robert D. Clements Jr. Law Group, LLLP, we help clients understand the complexities of these calculations. Our skilled team works to make certain that support amounts are determined transparently and fairly, advocating for agreements that reflect our clients’ financial realities and their children’s needs.

Securing Fair Child Support Agreements

Whether you are addressing child support as part of a divorce or in a separate legal context, achieving a fair agreement often requires skilled negotiation and, at times, court intervention. 

You have several options for securing fair terms, including:

  • Negotiation - Direct discussions can often lead to mutually beneficial solutions, especially when guided by an experienced attorney like those at our firm. 
  • Mediation - This structured process fosters collaboration between parents, offering a less contentious and cost-effective alternative to court proceedings.
  • Litigation - When agreement is not possible through other means, our trial-ready team is fully prepared to advocate for you in court, presenting a compelling case to protect your rights and the well-being of your child.
