Child Support

Central Alabama Child Support Lawyers

Divorce is a difficult and stressful time for adults, but children also suffer when their parents choose to end their marital relationship. Sometimes parents are so involved in their own challenges that they may lose sight of what is best for their children.

Concern for the Welfare of Children

In the child support area of his practice, attorney Phillip Bahakel is dedicated to ensuring the best interests of children are met while creating a support plan that both parties can live with. As a lawyer and as a judge, he has assisted families in finding fair and equitable solutions for the benefit of minors.

In addition to providing a residence for their children, both custodial and non-custodial parents have a duty to provide the cost of health care and day care in addition to the everyday expenses for clothing and feeding their offspring. As parents, you both also have a responsibility to foster positive relationships with your children, which will help them prepare for their future.

Modification of Child Support

After you divorce, events sometimes occur that require a change in the level of support needed by children:

  • Loss of a job
  • Change in income
  • Loss of residence
  • Injury of a parent
  • Injury of the child
  • Special needs of the child

Knowledgeable Legal Assistance with Modifications

Attorney Phillip Bahakel will represent you in court or any administrative proceeding as you seek a modification of child support. He will assist with immediate and continuing issues, including:

  • Applying for a change in support
  • Attending hearings
  • Presenting your case in court
  • Establishing paternity, if necessary

When it comes to child support after a divorce, the welfare of your children is at stake. Contact the law office of Phillip Bahakel for experienced, efficient legal assistance with child support issues. He will arrange for a free initial appointment to discuss your concerns.
