Children and divorce: How child custody decisions are made
In Idaho, the courts want the parents to determine a custody arrangement. A judge only steps in if there is a mandate. We will help you through the mediation process and come to a resolution. Determining the future of your children is emotional, but we will help you keep an objective perspective, so you will develop a plan that protects your rights and is in the best interests of your children.
Child Support
Child support is almost always determined by the regulations of the Idaho Supreme Court. It is based on a formula that takes into account the standard of living of both parents. Considering combined income, overnights, insurance, and tax exemptions, the court will come to a consensus as to child support. If there has been a major change in the financial situation of you or your former spouse, we can help you apply for a modification.
