Child support is determined by Illinois state guidelines. The child support calculation takes into consideration the incomes of the parents and the needs of the child. The Illinois child support guidelines provide that the parent without primary custody pays a percentage of net income each month toward the support of his or her children. There may be special circumstances that allow for a deviation of the standard. Those circumstances may include a high standard of living for a child or a child with special needs.

Determining the Income of Self-Employed Parents
If you or your child's other parent is self-employed or paid on a commission, determining exact income is more difficult. In these cases, it is imperative to have an experienced child support lawyer at your side to present your case and the accurate income to the judge.
Lisle Child Support Modification Attorney
No one's life stays the same. It is more than likely that sometime after your divorce or the establishment of your child support obligation, you will need to change it, or your spouse will ask the court to modify it. The court will modify child support obligation if there has been a significant change in circumstances. A change can include a loss of a job, a decrease in pay, an increase in pay or a medical issue. I handle both sides of the modification question and have been successful in asking the court for modifications and in opposing them.
