Accurate Support Calculations, Without the Complexity

Child support involves more than looking up a table amount. Special expenses need to be shared based on net cost after tax credits. Government benefits shift when custody arrangements change. Income needs to be determined under the Guidelines.

Divorcepath handles all of this automatically. Enter your information once and get a complete financial picture showing exactly how child support affects each party's bottom line.
