Texas child support guidelines determine child support calculations based on the net resources of the non-custodial parent, regardless of the financial circumstances of the custodial parent. At the law office of Hawkins & Walker, PC, we have extensive experience representing our clients’ interests in these sensitive family law cases.

Although the child support guidelines must be considered, there is a great deal of latitude within the Texas family code. Judges often consider a broad range of factors outside of these guidelines when making child support determinations. We know what factors to consider, the questions to ask, and the points to promote in order to ensure your interests are considered by the court.

If your child has special needs, the court must be aware of this point when making child support determinations. We will provide a thorough analysis of all of the extraordinary circumstances surrounding your case to ensure the comprehensive needs of your child are met.

The Fort Worth child support attorneys at Hawkins & Walker believe that the best interest of the child is paramount in any family law litigation. We can answer your questions and represent you in seeking child support or representing you if you are the respondent in a child support action.

Our child support attorneys in Fort Worth are skilled negotiators and fierce advocates on behalf of our clients. We work diligently to save our clients the trauma and animosity of a courtroom battle through successful alternative dispute resolution methods like mediation. However, when amicable resolutions cannot be reached, we will aggressively represent the interests of our clients and their children in court.

Establishing Paternity

If a child is born outside of marriage, it is highly beneficial to establish paternity for the child.

Not only is child support determined by paternity, but, once paternity is established, the child is entitled to all the rights, privileges, and benefits afforded to a child born within a marriage.
