Child Support

You are not alone in your responsibility to pay for your child’s education, extracurricular activities, clothes, food, health care and other basic needs. A child is entitled to financial support from both parents, and neither parent should be made to take on more than their fair share of the costs following a divorce or breakup. Bryn Lovejoy-Grinnell negotiates and works to uphold fair arrangements for the financial care of children. When clients in New York are involved in stressful child support battles, Bryn’s priority is to achieve settlements and decisions that ensure your children are fully supported.

Bryn takes a personalized approach when addressing the needs of each and every client in issues involving child support. Dedicated to helping parents know their rights, Bryn handles even the most complicated disagreements. She draws on her experience and knowledge of case law to provide the following services:

  • Negotiation of child support through mediation
  • Litigation of child support issues
  • Enforcement of child support orders
  • Modification of child support orders

Bryn will thoroughly explain New York child support guidelines and how they apply to you. Her goal is to keep her clients informed and empowered at every step, so that they have peace of mind knowing what their children are entitled to and what they can expect out of the legal process.

Sometimes, litigation is the only way to obtain the financial support your child deserves. Bryn will prepare and guide you so that you can make the best possible case if your matter goes to trial.

Child support orders remain in effect unless the court modifies the original order. If your child’s other parent fails to make court-ordered payments, Bryn can ask the court to compel the enforcement of the support order. When one parent suffers an injury or loses a job, fairness might dictate at least a temporary shift of financial burden to the other parent. Bryn can guide you through the proper legal procedures to modify your child support payments to accommodate your changing financial circumstances.
