How Is Child Support Calculated in Texas?

Texas child support cases are determined using the statutory guidelines while taking into consideration any deviations. Typically, the non-custodial parent will pay the custodial parent support each month. However, there are a number of factors which can come into play that can affect your case.

Factors that can affect a Texas child support case:

• The income of each parent
• The needs of the child, including education and healthcare
• Number of children to receive support

It is wise to have a Harris County child support lawyer on your side to guide you and protect your child's best interests, in and outside of court.
