Brown Family Attorney Child Custody Disputes

Ensuring Your Children Are Financially Supported

Each parent has a responsibility to support his or her children. The noncustodial parent will pay child support to the custodial parent. The amount paid will depend on the following:

The child support arrangement determined as part of the divorce
The number of nights each parent has with the children
Each parent’s gross monthly income

Your gross monthly income includes all sources of income, such as wages, investments, unemployment, and workers’ compensation. Any money you receive is counted toward your gross monthly income.

Our Salt Lake City child support lawyers can help you determine the amount of money you will either pay or receive, depending on whether you have custody of your children, by inputting the gross monthly incomes of you and your spouse into the Utah child support calculator.

Once this amount is determined, it will have to be paid monthly until your children reach the age of 18 or graduate from high school, whichever happens last. If you need to have this amount altered, you will have to petition for a modification of divorce decree. There must be a substantial change in circumstances for the courts to allow this change. Reasons may include:

The loss or gain of a job
One parent remarrying
One parent having another child

Salt Lake Child Support Collection Lawyers

If your former spouse is not making child support payments, you cannot deny parent-time, also known as visitation, to him or her. However, you can sue for failure to pay and for the amount owed in back payments. At Brown Family Law, our attorneys are diligent in their efforts to collect on back child support and may be able to request that attorney fees are included in the amount your former spouse owes.

We know you want what is best for your children and for yourself. We will do our best to help you achieve that.

Shelley Jensen

I was very well pleased with Katrina. She helped me every time I asked for it and my divorce was quick and easy. I couldn’t have asked for a better lawyer or law firm.

Heather Skender

Paul Waldron was our attorney and he represented my husbands case with perfect focus and provided quality advise. We would highly recommend him and Brown Family Law.

Jules Pettit

There's so many good things I could write. But I'll just sum it up to a few things.
If you want to feel taken care of, this is the right place to be. I am grateful for feeling heard and understood with the process of my divorce, and that Andrew took the time to explain things to me, even when I had to ask him to repeat concepts and legal jargon. Additionally, I'm deeply grateful that I felt Andrew advocated for me in various ways. And last but certainly not least, I'm grateful that he was a voice of reason when I was feeling emotionally charged.
Divorce is a terrible thing to go through but if you have to do it, it's good to be taken care of, which I felt I was.

Azucena Rojas

Got answers to all my questions . Thanks!

Beatriz Aravena

Annabelle Wade

My grandson is my entire world since the day he was born, when my daughter was going through a divorce I was really worried about losing time with him. She decided to use brown family law to help with her divorce after dragging her feet on it for two years, Clay was quick to meet with her and walk her through the process of divorce and help her get the case done the right way the first time. His communication was amazing and he was so quick to respond to her needs. Thank you Clay for what you’ve done for my daughter and everyone at brown family law for your kindness in the hardest phase of her life. I’m so glad she chose brown family law and I recommend them to anyone that asks me who to use for their divorce and custody cases.

Re W

I can't recommend Brown Family Law enough. Their attorney are amazing to work with and helped my daughter get sole legal and physical custody of my grand son. We were really worried about the long term effects of 50/50 custody and Clay made sure my daughters decree protected her and my grand son long term. Thank you for all that you did to protect my grand son and my little girl.

Kid Rhodey

Clay Randall was amazing helping my girlfriend with her divorce and custody case. She was able to get all of her goals achieved and to know her son is safe is such a comfort. I couldn’t recommend Brown Family Law more for all they did for her and my soon to be step son. Clay was always there to answer her questions and clarify anything she may have questions about. He thought of every possible scenario to make sure the decree protected her and her son moving forward through his life. Thank you Clay and Brown Family Law for all you have done for my girlfriend.

Luke

Had a courtesy lunch with Marco yesterday, you cannot expect a sharper, more down to earth, genuinely good guy. He's highly analytic and it is extremely evident he knows what he is doing, and is the best at it. He demonstrates high conscientiousness while still getting straight to the point. He is where he is because he knows the law, has won cases, and cares about the people all around him.

Response from the owner:Thank you, Luke. Very kind.

Lacey Pell

Bradley Newsome

I wholeheartedly recommend Brown Family Law, especially Anne Greyson as your attorney. I am incredibly grateful to Anne, my attorney, Idania Blandon, the paralegal, and everyone at Brown Family Law for their outstanding work. Anne made the entire process easier to navigate. I was consistently kept updated on my case through texts and emails. Whenever I had questions or concerns, Anne was quick to respond and offered exceptional advice.

The kindness, support, and compassion she showed me were invaluable during this journey. Five stars don’t do justice to Anne’s contributions; there aren't enough stars in the universe to reflect her dedication and hard work. Anne's professionalism was evident, and she helped me achieve a resolution that far exceeded my expectations. If you're seeking a reliable attorney, look no further than Brown Family Law, and trust that Anne is the right choice for you.

Response from the owner:Bradley, thank you for the kind words. Anne-Grayson worked hard for you.

Response from the owner:Jordan, I hope we never see you again either (that's a joke, but seriously), but I'm glad Daniel and Carren helped you so well with your divorce.

Kiki Neal

I called a number of attorneys in order to get a divorce. Most would call once and then not return phone calls. It was entirely frustrating. When I called Nathaniel at Brown Family Law, everything was easy. He and Carren were friendly and personable and, most importantly, quick and efficient. It took a total of eight weeks and two days and blammo! I was divorced.

Response from the owner:Kiki, thank you for your recommendation.

Karen Meneses

Great attorneys who care about their clients!
