Child Support
The team of attorneys here at Ruttenberg Dickerson has provided legal counsel to individuals with child support in Virginia for more than 40 years. Here is a brief overview of how our family law attorneys can assist you with child support matters.
What to Expect
In contested cases, child support is determined in two phases:
- In the first phase, child support can be obtained on an emergency or temporary basis.
- This stands until the second phase, in which a court has the opportunity to rule on custody and all other factors that go into determining an appropriate support award.
- Child support may also be agreed upon by the parties.
