Child Support

San Bernardino Child Support and Father's Rights Lawyer

Parenting involves responsibility. At the Law Offices of Frank J. Prainito, we don't believe that divorce means the end of your parental obligations. We care about the children of divorcing parents and the amount of child support they receive. Attorney Frank Prainito works closely with clients before, during, and after the divorce case is settled. Perhaps you are the custodial parent who is fighting to enforce child support payments. Or you may be the non-custodial parent determined to make sure that your visitation rights are protected and your child is properly cared for. In either case, we can help.

Because we are very involved in our San Bernardino community, we know how the local family court system works regarding child support settlements and obligations. Contact our offices in San Bernardino, California, to schedule a consultation about child support matters. Your child's best interest is always our primary goal in child custody, and child support matters.

Dad's law ▪ Paternity ▪ Visitation ▪ Support modifications ▪
Move-aways ▪ Custodial child relocation

Under California law, the amount of child support you pay or receive may have no bearing on custodial child relocation. Move-aways are becoming an increasingly larger part of divorce settlements and judgment modifications, as parents become more mobile. When relocation is being considered, the custodial parent is required to notify the non-custodial parent of the intent to move the child out of the child's school district. The non-custodial parent has a limited time to file a petition to protest the relocation. Courts deciding whether to allow the relocation take into account a variety of factors, with a special emphasis on what is truly best for the child, including economic opportunities and emotional well-being of the custodial parent. Even non-custodial parents who have no joint legal or physical custody may file a valid petition to prevent a move-away, if it can be shown that the child will suffer because of the move.
