Strategies to Reduce Child Support Payments
The article outlines the legal framework for child custody and child support in Georgia, emphasizing the best interests of the child while recognizing parents' financial realities. It explains the types of custody—legal and physical—and the factors courts consider when awarding custody. It also describes how child support is calculated using the income shares model, which considers both parents' incomes, adjustments for costs, and parenting time. To reduce child support payments, the article suggests filing a petition for modification, increasing parenting time, documenting financial hardships, negotiating with the other parent, and consulting a family law attorney. It also highlights key legal considerations, such as avoiding arrears and complying with existing court orders. The conclusion emphasizes pursuing modifications responsibly and through legal channels while prioritizing the child's welfare.
