EMAIL FOR CHILD SUPPORT QUESTIONS
The Resource Center/Office of the Family Law Facilitator is available to help both parties who have questions about child support issues and how to proceed with a legal action regarding these issues. The Family Law Facilitator is not your attorney and no attorney-client relationship is created as a result of any information or services provided to the party by the Family Law Facilitator and/or staff. This means that communications are not privileged and that services may be provided to both parties to a case.
You should consult with your own attorney if you want personalized advice or strategy, to have a confidential conversation, or to be represented by an attorney in court.
