Oklahoma Child Support Attorney: Ensuring Your Child's Needs Are Met

Child support is a critical component of any case involving minor children. It is the right of every child to be financially supported by both parents. At J. Stewart Legal, we help ensure that child support is calculated fairly and accurately according to state law. Whether you are establishing, modifying, or enforcing a child support order, we provide the clear guidance you need to protect your child's financial security.

How Child Support Is Calculated in Oklahoma

Oklahoma uses a statutory formula, known as the Oklahoma Child Support Guidelines, to determine the amount of support. The calculation is based on an "income shares" model, which considers the combined gross income of both parents. Key factors in the calculation include:

Each parent's gross monthly income.
The number of overnight visits the child has with each parent.
Costs for health insurance and work-related childcare.

While the guidelines provide a baseline, it is crucial to ensure all income is reported accurately and all factors are correctly applied.
