Missouri Child Support Modifications
In Missouri, child support is calculated by using what is called a Form 14, which takes into account a number of factors in determining the amount of support the custodial parent is to receive. When there is a 20 percent deviation between what has been ordered, and the present-day reality, the court can modify the orders.
For instance, if a parent is receiving 1000 dollars per month in child support, and can demonstrate that he or she needs at least an additional 200 dollars to meet the needs of the child, the parent can seek a court-ordered modification of child support orders
Our attorneys have handled numerous child support modifications and can guide you through the process. In addition to helping you pursue modifications to child support orders, we can also help you seek the enforcement of existing child support orders if your ex is not paying the child support that is owed to you.
