I originally tried to work with my ex to do things collaboratively but in the end I needed Vette to step in and get the job done. And that is exactly what Melanie did. Everyone and their mother has an opinion about the outcome and since I don't get divorced regularly, I really don't know if it could have been better. But I do know that it could have been worse. And I know that Melanie, and everyone I interacted with, was very helpful, understanding, sympathetic, and patient. I didn't know anything about this process and Melanie always took the time to explain things and give me options. I really appreciate all the help she gave me along the way.

After countless interviews with potential lawyers, I finally hired Sandy Fox and his firm to assist with child support and reunification with my children, as the mother has not allowed me to see them in nearly eight years. From the start, Sandy and his team have been absolutely incredible.
Having dealt with countless lawyers who took advantage of me financially and delivered no results, Sandy’s firm has been a breath of fresh air. They treat me with unmatched professionalism and care, offering a level of service and results I’ve never experienced before.
One of the most impressive aspects of Sandy’s firm is the extreme attention to detail in their court filings. Everything they submit is thorough and meticulously prepared, which has given me great confidence throughout this process. Additionally, his assistant, paralegals, and other attorneys are always on the ball, ensuring that every aspect of my case is handled efficiently and with the utmost care.
Family cases are deeply emotional, and throughout this difficult process, Sandy has been a constant source of support. When I feel deflated, I reach out to him, and he always takes the time to reassure me and lift my spirits—a level of care that goes beyond legal representation.
For anyone seeking an incredible law firm that offers not just professional expertise but also personal support, I cannot recommend Sandy Fox and his team highly enough. They truly are the best in family law.

Sandy Fox and his entire team are extremely effective! When I hired Sandy to represent me I was in a highly contentious divorce that had been painfully dragged out for 4 yrs and several attorneys . In less than a years time my case, that ultimately went in front of a judge, resolved. Sandy Fox shined and got me a judgment i didn’t think was even possible. As another reviewer stated he is not one to stroke ego or entertain B.S. on either side. He is a highly effective, focused and aprovechable Divorce trial lawyer!
I wish I had hired him and his team years earlier, I know it would have saved me and my family a lot of time, stress and money.

Do not look anywhere else! If you need a divorce attorney, Ms. Palma is all you need! She represented me in a nasty divorce that went all the way to court. It was a non stop battle with my ex and I am soooooo thankful I had Ms. Palma. She knew exactly what to do when things came up.
If you need an attorney that is organized, knowledgeable, caring, responsive and knows what they are doing?! I highly recommend, hiring Ms. Palma.

I cannot express enough the sincere appreciation and gratitude I have for Ashley and the entire Baillargeon Law Firm for the professional and dedicated handling of my case. From the very beginning, Ashley and her team made me feel like family. I never felt alone throughout the entire process. Ashley, kept me updated and informed every step of the way! I could not be happier with this law firm. Ashley is so down to earth, is truly respected, fights diligently, and cares for her clients. I will recommend the Baillargeon Law Firm over and over and over!!!! Actually, I already have and Ashley began working hard for my referral immediately. When searching for an attorney, I wanted someone who saw me, was willing to give their all for me, and was a bulldog when needing to be. I had that and more with this law firm. From the bottom of my heart, Ashley, I appreciate you immensely and thank you deeply for absolutely everything you did for me. You embody how an attorney should be and pride yourself in providing excellent customer service. Grade ++++++AAAAAAAAAA++++++++ all the way!!!!

I separated from my wife right before I left the Marine corps. That was a very difficult time that I am still currently trying to deal with.

Understanding that these are hard times they will get you through it.

I had a consult with R.J. yesterday because I was concerned how my current divorce lawyer was handling my case bec she seemed a bit too friendly with my ex's lawyer who she knew. R.J kindly gave me his time and listened to my concerns and told me that he would gladly accept my case, but he thought my lawyer is doing the right thing by me and my kids. Now, that is a response from a highly intelligent, fair-minded attorney. If anything does happen with my current lawyer, I will be retaining R.J. because he's honest, straightforward and cares about the children involved in high conflict cases. I've interviewed at least 25 lawyers over my case and R.J. definitely stands out in a very good way.

If you find yourself needing an attorney, Steven Ganim, is the attorney to choose!
Steven represented me for a Real Estate case and he didn't just represent me he educated me, respected me, and ensured I was in trusted hands. Steven's communication and follow through is impeccable. His integrity, intelligence and commitment definitely shone through. Regardless of his case load (I would have no idea but I would have to assume it is large due to his ability) you will feel as if you are his only client and his #1 priority! I highly recommend Steven and Ganim Law Group.

Coffman Family Law took a stressful situation and supported me through the process with good information and knowledge of the law.
Josh Coffman is both professional and extremely personal and compassionate in how he deals with clients and his support staff reflect his approach. They are timely, responsive and communicative.

I cannot recommend Mr. Ibrahim Ayyub highly enough for his exceptional work as an immigration attorney. From the moment he took on my case, he demonstrated unmatched professionalism, thoroughness, and dedication. After having a negative experience with other lawyers, I was truly amazed by how efficiently and expertly he handled my case. Thanks to his extraordinary efforts, everything was resolved in just a few weeks—a testament to his expertise and commitment. He is, without a doubt, the best attorney I have ever worked with, and I am incredibly grateful for his outstanding service.
Thank you so much

After reaching the decision that I needed guidance in asset protection and making a decision to end a long term marriage I sought legal counsel with The Aikin Law group. I was referred to Wendy by a mutual friend and colleague. From the start Wendy and her team were courteous, prompt and professional. She provided me with all of the information that I needed to make difficult decisions. Wendy helped me process the issues and make the best informed decision for my case. I have managed a law firm for over 35 years and have vast experience dealing with many attorneys and I feel the counsel I received was excellent. I do not make recommendations lightly . Wendy is a formidable attorney and I highly recommend Wendy and her Paralegal, Diana to anyone requiring Family Law representation. She was absolutely the best.

If you are reading this, your attorney search is done. Let me explain.
Erica agreed to represent me for an extremely important hearing regarding custody of my son. In a very short period of time, she was able to come up to speed on my case. Her preparation and attention to detail was obvious as she worked through witness testimony and her ability to respond to objections by opposing counsel was impressive (if I could have filmed her courtroom performance, I would upload here).
Erica is an amazing attorney - I wholeheartedly recommend you call her office.

Jordan Gerber is a complete angel on Earth. She was willing to take on my complex case, which had already been set for trial, when most attorneys wouldn’t touch it. My case was not only complex by legal standards, but I had also unfortunately been representing myself and had undoubtably made things worse (although Jordan was too gracious to tell me so.)
Nevertheless, Jordan jumped right in and was truly so compassionate and very knowledgeable about the outstanding issues in my case. Within weeks of taking me on as a client, she managed to make great strides in removing a major obstacle that was a thorn in my side for the many years of my legal battles.
She fought hard for me every step of the way, she was thorough and fierce in her representation, and she put a lot on the line because she believed in my rights to due process. That means a lot to someone when their chips are down. I felt empowered by having Jordan in my corner, she is an absolute Rockstar in my book.
If you are looking for a family law attorney that will take their time to learn about you, your family, and your case, and will fight like hell for you; look no further, hire Jordan immediately.

I was grateful to have Anderson & Ferrin represent me on my divorce case. Their firm communicated regularly with me throughout the process and answered any questions I had along the way. If Michael was in trial and unable to respond right away, Victoria was quick to respond to emails and explain things I didn’t understand. Michael strongly advocated for my best interests in the pleadings and when communicating with opposing counsel on my behalf. I appreciate the level of compassion and professionalism they showed.

Matthew Rygh, ladies and gentlemen, at your service! Referred to me by a friend, we retained Matt to handle a custody dispute that has been lingering over my husband’s head for 7years.
While there are no guarantees in family law, Matt’s approach, confidence, and notable knowledge of family law is just the reassurance that you need. He is the perfect balance of diplomat and warrior, not afraid and also prepared to fight for you.
He not only came out with the victory for my husband, but also informed him of possibilities he didn’t know he had. If you are dealing with a high-conflict parenting situation, retaining Matt Rygh is an investment you will not regret making! -The Doziers

I don’t have enough kind words to say about Ashley Bustamante. My divorce was very difficult and challenging in many different ways for almost two years and Ashley never wavered, her calm confidence and caring supporting me on many occasions when things were just becoming too much. Her deadly weapon is having an extremely likable manner while at the same time being extremely persuasive and logical clearly painting a picture in the judges mind of even the most complex issues. At every hearing and the trial where she represented me, every single time she got the judge to see it from our point of view and agree with our position ruling accordingly. She ended up fighting for me until the absolute end and ended up getting me everything that I wanted in the divorce. On the personal side she was my rock and always went above and beyond and made me feel that I was her only client and the most important case she had ever had. I will be forever grateful that she came into my life and fought for me to the end.

What a Child Support Lawyer Can Do for You
A child support lawyer specializes in legal issues related to the financial support that one parent provides to another for the upbringing of their children. These lawyers assist with establishing, enforcing, and modifying child support orders, ensuring that the financial needs of the child are met, including housing, food, healthcare, education, and other essentials. A child support lawyer can also represent parents in disputes over the amount of support, ensure fair calculations based on income, and handle legal proceedings if one parent fails to meet their obligations.
Whether you're seeking to establish child support, modify an existing order, or enforce payments, a child support lawyer can help you navigate the legal system and protect your rights and the well-being of your child.
When Should I Hire a Child Support Lawyer?
You should consider hiring a child support lawyer when you need assistance with any of the following child support matters:
- Establishing child support: If you are going through a divorce or separation and need to establish a child support order, a lawyer can help ensure that the support amount is fair and accurately calculated.
- Modifying child support orders: If there has been a significant change in circumstances, such as a job loss, income change, or a child's financial needs, a lawyer can help you request a modification to the existing child support order.
- Enforcing child support payments: If the other parent has failed to make court-ordered child support payments, a lawyer can help enforce the order through legal means such as wage garnishment, property liens, or even legal action.
- Disputing child support calculations: If you believe the child support amount has been incorrectly calculated based on your income or expenses, a lawyer can help you challenge the calculation and seek a fair adjustment.
- Paternity disputes: If paternity needs to be established before child support can be ordered, a lawyer can assist with DNA testing and legal proceedings.
- Interstate child support cases: If the parents live in different states, navigating child support laws can be complex. A lawyer can help ensure the proper jurisdiction is established and that child support is enforced across state lines.
- Child support during custody disputes: If child custody and child support are being determined simultaneously, a lawyer can help ensure that both issues are resolved fairly and in the best interest of the child.
Hiring a lawyer early can help ensure that your child support case is handled effectively and that your child's financial needs are met.
What Does a Child Support Lawyer Do?
A child support lawyer provides a variety of legal services to help parents secure, modify, and enforce child support arrangements. Their responsibilities often include:
- Filing for child support: A lawyer can help you initiate the legal process to obtain a child support order, ensuring that all necessary documentation is submitted and deadlines are met.
- Calculating child support: A lawyer can help ensure that child support is calculated fairly based on both parents' incomes, the needs of the child, and other factors such as healthcare and education costs.
- Negotiating child support agreements: If both parents are willing to negotiate, a lawyer can help facilitate an agreement on child support outside of court, which can then be approved by a judge.
- Representing you in court: If negotiations fail or the other parent contests the child support amount, a lawyer will represent you in family court, presenting evidence and making legal arguments to support your case.
- Modifying support orders: A lawyer can help you file a request for modification if circumstances change, such as a loss of income or an increase in the child’s financial needs.
- Enforcing child support: If the other parent is not making court-ordered payments, a lawyer can take legal steps to enforce the order through wage garnishment, property liens, or other measures.
- Handling complex cases: In cases involving high incomes, self-employment, or complicated financial situations, a lawyer can help ensure that all relevant factors are considered in determining child support.
How Are Child Support Lawyers Paid?
Child support lawyers typically charge for their services based on the complexity of the case and the type of legal work required. Common payment methods include:
- Hourly rate: Most child support lawyers charge by the hour, with rates ranging from $150 to $500 or more, depending on the lawyer’s experience and location. The total cost will depend on how much time the lawyer spends on your case, including preparation, negotiations, and court appearances.
- Flat fee: For more straightforward cases, such as uncontested child support agreements or basic modifications, some lawyers may offer a flat fee that covers all services related to the case.
- Retainer: Many lawyers require a retainer, which is an upfront payment that is billed against as the lawyer works on your case. The amount of the retainer depends on the expected complexity of the case.
- Sliding scale or pro bono services: Some lawyers offer sliding scale fees based on income or provide pro bono (free) services in cases where clients cannot afford to pay full legal fees, especially when children’s needs are at stake.
It’s important to discuss fees with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand how much you will be charged and what services are covered.
How Much Does a Child Support Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a child support lawyer varies depending on the complexity of the case, whether it's contested or uncontested, and the lawyer’s experience. General cost estimates include:
- Uncontested child support cases: Legal fees may range from $1,500 to $5,000, depending on the complexity of the paperwork and the lawyer’s fees.
- Contested child support cases: Legal fees can range from $5,000 to $20,000 or more, especially if the case involves significant court time.
- Hourly rates: Lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour for child support cases, with higher rates for more experienced attorneys or cases that involve complex financial issues.
- Modification or enforcement: Fees for modifying or enforcing a child support order may range from $2,000 to $10,000, depending on the complexity and the need for court intervention.
Always ask for a detailed cost estimate during your consultation so you can plan your budget accordingly.
Top Questions to Ask a Child Support Lawyer
Before hiring a child support lawyer, it’s important to ask questions to ensure they are the right fit for your case. Key questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with child support cases?
Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it’s establishing, modifying, or enforcing child support orders. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, offers flat fees, or requires a retainer, and ask for a detailed estimate of the total cost. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask the lawyer for an honest assessment of your case and any potential challenges you may face. -
How long will the process take?
Child support cases can take time, so ask the lawyer how long they expect the process to last and what factors may cause delays. -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of the case. Make sure you know who will be managing your case and representing you in court. -
What documents should I prepare?
Ask the lawyer what financial documents and other information you should bring to help them calculate child support and build your case.
How to Check the Credibility of a Child Support Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable child support lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Verify their bar status: Check with your state bar association to confirm that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no history of disciplinary actions.
- Look for family law experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in family law and have successfully handled child support cases similar to yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for client reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be able to provide references from past clients who have worked with them on child support matters.
- Check for certifications: Some lawyers may have certifications in family law or membership in organizations like the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), which can indicate their expertise in child support and family law issues.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with a child support lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Income documents: Bring pay stubs, tax returns, W-2s, or any other documentation of your income and the other parent’s income, as this will be used to calculate child support.
- Existing child support orders: If there are any existing child support or custody orders, bring copies for the lawyer to review.
- Child-related expenses: Provide documentation of your child’s medical bills, education expenses, daycare costs, and any other expenses that should be factored into the child support calculation.
- Communication with the other parent: Bring any communication between you and the other parent regarding child support, whether through emails, text messages, or written agreements.
- List of questions: Prepare a list of questions about your case, the legal process, and the lawyer’s fees.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer assess your case more effectively and provide the best possible legal advice on how to proceed.
