Child Support can be obtained through an assessment from the Child Support Agency, through an informal agreement between parents, through a Binding Child Support Agreement or through a Limited Child Support Agreement. Child support is separate from spousal maintenance, which is separate from a property division. To determine the most suitable option for your circumstances it is best to seek the advice of a lawyer.
