What Does Child Support Cover?
Family law courts in the state of Oklahoma are charged with the task of making child support decisions that are in the best interest of your child. As a Tulsa child support attorney, I know there are a few specific areas the courts focuses on right away when calculating child support. For example, the court tends to look at the parent’s gross income, property holding and savings.
The Tulsa family court judge will determine how much child support the non-custodial parent in the custody arrangement will need to contribute for child care, medical care and other expenses. That’s why as a Tulsa child support lawyer, I know what the important details that the court uses to evaluate and finally come to make its decisions.
When Does Child Support End in Oklahoma?
For the most part a child is entitled in Oklahoma to support payments by the parents until their child either graduates from high school or until the age of 20 years-old, whichever occurs first.
As a Tulsa child support attorney, we’ve seen support extended for specific circumstances. If the Oklahoma family court judge determines that the child needs additional care and personal supervision because of a mental or physical disability, then the court could grant support for an extended period of time.
