Support for Your Children
If you are a parent going through a divorce, or if you were never married, child support will be an important element in the upbringing of your children. In the state of Florida, both parents must financially support their children if they have parental rights.

Florida Guidelines Lawyer
Child support payments are driven by several factors, including the parents' financial situations and the parenting plan. During custody proceedings, parents are required to submit a detailed parenting plan outlining how they will share parenting responsibilities.
The parenting plan affects the child support determination, as Florida's child support guidelines place significant weight on how much time the children spend with each parent. Generally, child support is paid to the person with whom the children spend most of their time. At the Law Offices of Mark G. Rodriguez, P.A., I can also help parents collect on back child support. If necessary, I am prepared to fight for you in court.
During child support proceedings, it is important to examine all income and financial records of both parents. I can help you uncover hidden income, fraud or issues regarding commissions, in order to come to an accurate child support calculation.
Child Support Modifications
In today's volatile economy, financial circumstances can change in an instant. A mother or father can lose his or her job, or one might be required to relocate. A substantial change in income or a revised parenting plan can necessitate a child support modification.
