Seattle Area Child Support Attorney
Parents often think that they must accept the amount of support indicated by the Washington State support calculator, or that, once established, the amount cannot be adjusted in the future. Neither is correct. At the Law Offices of Susan Amini, in Bellevue, we help mothers and fathers with a wide range of child support matters. Working with the child support guidelines, we can help you arrive at a fair support payment.

For a fair calculation of child support payments, it is critical to include all income and expenses. It is also important to consider factors other than income and assets, such as any amount of spousal support paid or whether there are extraordinary financial demands caused by disability or chronic illness.
Understanding that every family faces unique circumstances and challenges, we examine all the issues and make recommendations about the best solution to a child support issue. Whether you are unmarried or you are going through a divorce, we will make sure the courts properly consider the following:
Child Support Modification
If there are substantial changes in the circumstances of either parents or the child, the original child support order can be modified after two years have passed. We can take a look at your situation and help you determine whether or not you will be eligible for child support modification. A modification petition often follows an event such as:
- Large increase or decrease in either parent's income
- Change in the parenting plan
- Child moving into the next age bracket
- Extraordinary medical expense for the child or the parents
- Need to include education expenses in the support calculations
