Parents are legally obligated to support their minor children. However, parents often don’t agree on how much that support should be. While North Carolina uses a formula to calculate child support, those presumptive guidelines bear more scrutiny in many cases. Parents can be awarded more or less support based on various factors, including willful unemployment or underemployment. 

Our Raleigh child support lawyer can help you get a fair amount so you can care for your child. We will go over the child support guidelines and look at other factors that could impact the amount you’re owed. Then, we can attempt to negotiate a child support order with the other parent before taking the case to court, if necessary. Contact us today to learn more about your options regarding child support.
