At Mike Nyhof Family Law, we understand the importance of securing financial stability for your children following a separation or divorce. Child support is a legal responsibility, and we're here to help you navigate this crucial aspect of family law.

Child support refers to the ongoing financial contributions made by the non-custodial parent towards the costs of raising the child. These costs can include everyday expenses, education, healthcare, and more. The goal of child support is to ensure that children maintain the same standard of living they would have if their parents were together.

In Canada, child support amounts are typically determined by the Federal Child Support Guidelines, which take into account the income of the non-custodial parent and the number of children they are responsible for supporting. However, every family's circumstances are unique, and there may be additional factors to consider.

We assist clients in establishing fair child support orders during the initial separation or divorce proceedings. We ensure that all relevant factors, including each parent's income, the child's needs, and the custody arrangement, are taken into consideration.

Additionally, we understand that life circumstances can change. If your situation has significantly changed since your original child support order was established, such as a substantial change in income, we can assist you in applying for a modification of the order to better reflect your current circumstances.

We also offer support in enforcing child support orders when the paying parent fails to meet their obligations. Our team will guide you through the legal process to ensure that your children receive the financial support they are entitled to.

At Mike Nyhof Family Law, we are committed to ensuring the well-being of your children. If you need assistance with establishing, modifying, or enforcing a child support order, don't hesitate to reach out to our team. We're here to provide the legal guidance and support you need.
