Financial Issues for Women Who are Both Mothers and Working Professionals

As more women enter the workforce and take on professional careers and occupations, they become more vulnerable than ever before to financial pressure during divorce. In an increasing number of couples, the woman earns more than the man, and this earning power places the woman under scrutiny when determining child support and spousal support.

When the mother is awarded primary physical custody of the child, she usually bears the cost of childcare. It is important that lawyers factor daycare expenses into a final child support agreement.
