California Child Support Laws

Child support in California is governed by the Family Code. Under the law, both parents have the legal and moral duty to support their minor children financially.

Mostly, the non-custodial parent pays child support to the custodial parent to cover the child’s basic costs. These payments are paid every month and cover the child’s food, housing, clothing, and other necessities. Failure or denial to pay child support can result in serious consequences such as wage garnishment, suspension of driver’s license, and possible jail time.

Whether you have been asked to pay child support or receive it – best consult with a child support attorney Orange County to ensure a just and fair payment plan that serves the child’s needs and is also affordable to the payor.

Mediation is an alternative dispute resolution mechanism that can resolve family law disputes in a structured setting. It requires a neutral third-party mediator who mediates on behalf of both parties without choosing sides. 

Mediation is thus a neutral and fair process where the mediator facilitates communication and cooperation between both parties to achieve an amicable resolution. The mediator himself/herself has no personal interest beyond helping the parties to a settlement. 

At Jos Family Law, we have highly experienced and trained Orange County divorce mediation attorneys who have a successful track record of settling hundreds of family law disputes. We believe that some cases are best solved by mediation - which minimizes stress, cost, and time for both parties. 

Why Choose Mediation?

Mediation provides the opportunity to settle family law disputes such as child custody and visitation rights, child support, spousal support, and asset division. Mediation is apt for parties who have a positive relationship and are willing to work together to reduce the emotional and financial burdens of litigation. The process also saves time and eliminates complex formalities that family law trials involve. 

Additionally, mediation takes place in a confidential setting with no details or statements recorded in court. Even the notes taken by the mediator aren't subject to public record.
