Arizona child support laws

When married or unmarried parents end their relationships and no longer live with each other, a family court might issue child support orders. Child support can be ordered to establish financial support for children so that they can enjoy a similar standard of living to what they would have if their parents had remained together.

Under ARS 25-501, Arizona expects all parents to contribute financially to their children’s upbringing. The costs involved with raising a child include more than simply paying for activities but also include the additional expenses involved with providing housing, food, transportation, medical care, and others.

If you want to establish a child support order or are involved in a dispute with your child’s other parent regarding support, you should seek legal help from De Novo Law.
