Law Offices of Christy E Draper

Divorce
Child Support
In order to determine child support, the court will look at the combined gross incomes of both parents and use state guidelines to establish support based on that income. For example, if the father’s gross income is $3,000 a month and the mother’s gross income is $2,000, their total gross income is $5,000. If the judge determines that the support should be $1,000 a month, then the amount paid would depend on which parent is the non-custodial parent. If the mother is the non-custodial parent, then she would pay 40% of the child support to the father, or $400. If the father is the non-custodial parent, then he will pay 60%, or $600 to the mother. There are also different factors that can change the amount of child support; for example, if one parent has other children to support or is paying for the child’s medical insurance. The Georgia Child support Commission provides a child support guideline calculator.
Child Custody and Visitation
There are two forms of child custody: physical and legal. Physical child custody determines where the child lives or visits, and for what period of time. Legal custody determines who makes decisions about the child’s health, education, and other significant needs. In a child custody proceeding, the court will use the best interest of the child standard to decide the custody arrangement. This means that the court will examine the health and wellbeing of the child with each of the parents as well as each parent’s living environment, in order to make an informed decision.
Adoption
Paternity
Premarital Agreement
Spousal Support
Alimony (also referred to spousal support) is a payment from one spouse to the other for the recipient’s care after the divorce. Alimony isn’t necessarily ordered in every single case, it is dependent on the earning capacities of both parties as well as several other factors, like the standard of living established during the marriage and the contributions of both parties to the marriage. The length of the marriage is also a significant factor. Alimony isn’t usually ordered in a marriages that are short term.
