Livingston NJ Child Custody Lawyers for Men

In the past, custody of the children was almost always given to the mother. Today, an increasing number of dads want to be named the custodial parent or a co-parent. Here at The Micklin Law Group, we have an enviable track record advocating for fathers in Livingston who want to co-parent the children with the mother of be named the custodial parent.

As is the case Nutley, Montclair throughout New Jersey, in a Livingston divorce the law states that the best interests of the children must come above all other considerations. We have experience showing family court judges why naming the father as a co- or custodial parent is best for the children.

Livingston NJ Child Support Lawyers

The amount of child support to be paid is governed by state guidelines that are used to calculate the amount.

The guidelines take a number of factors into account in a complex calculation that determines the amount. If your wife has a career or owns her own business, determining the amount isn’t as simple it was when the man earned all or the bulk of the family income. When we work with men from Livingston NJ who have one or more children, we know how to use the guidelines to ensure that their child support payments are both fair and adequate to maintain their offspring.

When a father becomes the co-parent or custodial parent and the mother has her own income, we make sure that this information is included in the calculation.

Livingston NJ Spousal Support Lawyer for Men

Spousal support exists to lessen the financial burden after a divorce so that both people can build a new life for themselves.

When an ex wife wants spousal support, we make sure that she is not hiding any income or assets that should be included in calculating how much spousal support should be paid. We may be able to determine that she is not entitled to any alimony.

With more and more women working in high-paying positions or owning a business, there are situations where the man or father in Livingston who is getting a divorce is entitled to receive spousal support. In these situations, we fight hard to ensure that the man is not treated unfairly in the settlement.
