Method of Calculating Support Divorce Attorney GA

In determining custody, the court will consider the age and gender of each child, whether there are siblings, the relationships with the parents, and which parent has been the primary caretaker during the marriage. The court will also consider which parent, if given custody, will help the child maintain a healthy relationship with the non-custodial parent. The court almost always awards visitation to the parent not given custody. However, the court may consider family violence in making a decision about whether to award visitation to the non-custodial parent. If the parties are able to reach an agreement about custody and a visitation schedule, the court will usually approve the agreement if it is in the best interest of the child.

Georgia utilizes the percentage of income formula which determines the amount of child support as a percentage of the income of the parent obligated to pay the child support. This percentage is determined by factoring the number of children requiring support. This is the most basic or primitive method for calculating support. Many people believe that it does not take into consideration many important details, which makes this model of support calculation the least exact.
