Children are always our primary concern. Issues include assuring the children receive adequate financial support, family time with each parent, and a stable home. Both mother and father usually play a role in resolving these issues. It is important that you meet with a lawyer before working out an agreement or participate in mediation on your own. At our first interview, we can give you an accurate assessment of what your support obligations may be.
