Child Support Legal Services for Yuba City, Marysville & Sutter County
California law requires courts to adhere to statewide uniform guidelines in setting child support orders unless the parents agree to a higher or lower child support amount and the party receiving the support is not receiving state support or aid. To help parties figure out what support is owed, the State of California provides a guideline calculator.
It is very important that a party understands and accurately fills the information into the calculator. Many mistakes are made by parties not correctly inputting information into a program for support. Understanding the proper calculations can significantly impact your family’s financial security in the Yuba-Sutter area.
Wage Garnishment & Enforcement
A wage garnishment should be filed to collect the support from the paying parent. This garnishment must have the support paid through the California State Disbursement Unit. Child support establishment and enforcement is available at no cost to the requesting party by the Department of Child Support Services. Each county has an office and, if the only issue is child support, contacting the office in your county may be beneficial.
