At Southern Oregon Family Law, LLC, we understand that matters of child and spousal support are sensitive and crucial for your family’s well-being. Our dedicated family law team helps you through these challenging times, ensuring that support orders are accurate for both the party paying support and the party receiving support.

Understanding Child Support In Oregon

In Oregon, child support is designed to ensure that children receive the financial support they need from both parents. Child support calculations are based on several factors, including:

  • The gross income of both parents
  • The specific financial needs of the child
  • The amount of time each parent spends with the child (custody and parenting time schedule)

Typically, the noncustodial parent is responsible for paying child support. If circumstances change, such as a job loss or a significant change in income, you can request a modification to the support order.

Types Of Spousal Support In Oregon

Spousal support, also known as “Alimony,” is intended to help both individuals maintain a suitable living standard for a specified period following a divorce. Oregon recognizes several types of spousal support:

  • Temporary support (procedural order): Provides financial assistance during the divorce process
  • Transitional support: Helps the receiving spouse gain education or training to reenter the workforce
  • Compensatory support: Offered when one spouse has significantly contributed to the other’s education or career
  • Maintenance support: Provides long-term support, often in marriages of long duration

Each type of support serves a specific purpose. Our lawyers aim to help you negotiate a support arrangement that is fair to both parties.
