Experienced Family Law Guidance
Child Custody
Parents who are getting divorced or unmarried parents who are separated will need to create a parenting plan that decides how they will share in parental responsibilities. A parenting plan will address legal custody, also known as the right to share in decision-making responsibilities for children, and physical custody, meaning the parenting time that each parent will have with their children, when, where, and how. Pesch Law Office starts with providing a copy of a comprehensive parenting plan that can be tailored to the needs of your family.
Child Support
Parents who are divorced or separated are required to provide financial support to ensure that their children's ongoing needs will be met. Child support is determined based on all sources of income earned by both parents, and the amount of time children live with each parent is a factor that is considered. Child support is resolved AFTER a parenting time schedule is reached. We can help you make sure child support obligations are calculated correctly while also addressing other child-related expenses and college expenses for non-minor children.
