Child Support Representation in Overland Park, Kansas and Johnson County
Child support questions often arise when parents are dealing with changing financial circumstances or attempting to ensure that a child’s needs are being met consistently and fairly. Kansas courts rely on detailed financial information and standardized guidelines when issuing or reviewing support orders. For parents in Overland Park and throughout Johnson County, understanding how those rules apply is essential.
Stange Law Firm, PC represents parents in Johnson County in matters involving the establishment of child support, post-order modifications, and enforcement when payments are not being made as ordered by the court.
How Child Support Is Addressed in Johnson County, Kansas
Kansas uses statewide child support guidelines to calculate support obligations. These guidelines take into account multiple financial factors and are designed to create consistency across cases while still allowing courts to consider individual circumstances.
Parents may find it helpful to review the Kansas Child Support Chart, which provides a general framework for how support amounts are determined based on combined parental income and the number of children involved. While the chart can offer a helpful starting point, courts often require additional calculations and adjustments depending on expenses and financial disclosures.
When a Child Support Order May Need to Change
A child support order may no longer reflect reality if there has been a meaningful change in circumstances. Situations that commonly lead to modification requests include:
Changes in employment or income
Adjustments to health insurance coverage for a child
New or increased childcare expenses
Additional child support obligations involving other children
When appropriate, our attorneys assist parents in requesting a modification through the Johnson County court system. We also represent parents in enforcement and contempt actions when court-ordered support is not being paid.
Financial Records and Support Calculations
Accurate financial information plays a critical role in child support cases. Parents are often required to provide documentation such as:
Income records and pay statements
Federal and state tax returns
Proof of health insurance costs for the child
Documentation of childcare or daycare expenses
Information regarding other existing support obligations
Our Overland Park child support attorneys help clients collect, organize, and present this information and handle the support calculation to ensure the court receives clear and complete financial data.
