Phoenix Child Support Lawyers

Arizona has established child support guidelines to determine the amount of child support a non-custodial parent must pay. The guidelines are typically straight forward, but there may be circumstances present in your case that may warrant a deviation from the Arizona Child Support Guidelines. An experienced attorney can explain the guidelines to you as well as help ensure you take full advantage of everything the guidelines offer in calculating child support.

Of course, after a divorce, issues with child support may arise, including the need for child support enforcement proceedings or petitions for post-divorce modification of child support based on an ongoing change of circumstances. Our attorneys also help with wage garnishment and enforcement proceedings as well as paternity suits to establish or refute child support.

At the DeShon Pullen & Associates law firm, our family law attorneys can help in these matters. We have extensive experience and will take the time to explain the law and the process to you.

Phoenix Arizona Alimony Lawyers

Alimony is technically referred to as spousal maintenance in Arizona. Unlike the Arizona Child Support Guidelines, Maricopa County Superior Court has not adopted the spousal maintenance guidelines. Therefore, whether alimony will be granted under the specific circumstances of your case is an uncertainty. Even more of an uncertainty is the amount of alimony ordered if a judge deems spousal maintenance is warranted in your case.

Alimony is an area where an experienced family law attorney can help. Our spousal maintenance lawyers can assist you in putting together and presenting the best possible case. We represent husbands and wives in alimony disputes.
