\u00a0"It is important to get advice before entering into a child support agreement because the terms of the agreement may be in place for many years."<\/i><\/p>

The laws governing child support in Australia are complex. We can help you understand the Australian child support system and assess your child support in your circumstances. We can also advise you on applications to change assessments with child support agencies and collection issues.<\/p>

Many parents come to their own agreements regarding child support, especially regarding private school fees, special medical expenses and extracurricular activities. Some parents also agree to pay lump sum child support payments. We can provide you with advice tailored to your circumstances and formalize the arrangement through a binding child support agreement.<\/p>

If your child is over 18 but still needs financial support, usually because your child is still studying or has a disability, our family lawyers can also advise and assist you with applying for adult child support.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
