Understanding your rights and obligations is essential to ensuring the stability and well-being of your family.
Child support
Child support, according to the law, aims to provide for the child's basic needs: food, housing, medical care, education, and recreation. It ensures that each parent contributes a fair share, regardless of their marital status. The amount is determined in the best interests of the child and must be adjusted to reflect their individual circumstances.
How is the amount of child support determined?
The calculation of child support takes into account several factors: parental income, number of children, custody arrangements, and the children's specific needs. Federal and provincial guidelines help govern the process, but each situation is unique and warrants a personalized analysis by a legal professional.
Special fees for children
During a separation or divorce, the question of child support is central. In addition to child support, certain exceptional and specific expenses may be taken into account: these are special expenses. These expenses, often unforeseen or related to the child's specific needs, are not automatically covered by child support. They must therefore be the subject of an agreement with the parents or a court order.
