Child support is an important part of ensuring your child’s financial needs are met after a separation or divorce. Whether you are seeking child support, responding to a support request, or need to modify an existing order, understanding your rights and responsibilities can make a significant difference.
At Scurlock Family Law, we help parents in Fort Collins and throughout Larimer County navigate child support matters with confidence. Our team provides knowledgeable, compassionate legal guidance to help you understand Colorado’s child support laws, protect your interests, and work toward a fair arrangement that supports your child’s well-being.
Colorado child support is generally calculated using state guidelines that consider several financial and family-related factors. These guidelines are designed to help ensure children receive appropriate financial support from both parents.
Factors that may affect a child support calculation include:
Child support issues can arise during divorce, legal separation, or a parenting dispute. They may also become relevant when an existing support order no longer reflects a family’s financial circumstances.
At Scurlock Family Law, we assist clients with a variety of child support matters, including:
Establishing child support. We help parents understand the process of establishing an initial child support order and determining an appropriate support amount.
Child support modifications. Significant changes in income, parenting time, or other circumstances may justify a modification. We help parents evaluate whether a change in support may be appropriate.
Enforcement of child support orders. When a parent fails to meet their support obligations, we can explain available legal options for addressing unpaid child support.
Disputed income calculations. If there are concerns about income reporting, self-employment, or other financial circumstances, we help clients understand how these issues may affect child support.
Led by attorney Bronwyn Scurlock, licensed in Colorado since 2005, our firm focuses on family law matters. Our experienced team of women, including a Licensed Legal Paraprofessional (LLP), is committed to helping families navigate difficult legal situations. We understand that child support is about more than numbers; it’s about creating financial stability for your child and helping parents understand their obligations and options.
We explain the legal process in straightforward language and provide personalized guidance based on your circumstances. Whether your case can be resolved through negotiation or requires court involvement, we help you understand the process and prepare for the next steps.
Life changes. A job loss, increase in income, change in parenting time, or new financial responsibility may affect an existing child support arrangement.
Colorado law allows child support orders to be modified when certain legal requirements are met. Our team can help you evaluate your circumstances, understand your options, and determine the appropriate next steps.
You do not have to navigate child support questions alone. Whether you are establishing support, seeking a modification, or addressing an enforcement issue, Scurlock Family Law is here to help.
