Q: Will I be forced to change jobs?
An ex just had my baby and we both know we’re going to establish child support soon. I’m on limited hours due to covid And how it impacts our field. Will I be forced to find a new job? I’ve been here a few years and would normally get 40 hours, the last few months have been 20 hours at most since Ohio’s been hit. I’ve also saved about 9 grand (stopped spending, moved back home, ect) in case I were to lose my limited hours, will my savings be taken?
A: The current virus situation affecting your employment could be one factor in determining the child support amount. Use the Find a Lawyer tab to retain a local family law attorney who can review your financial situation, run the Ohio child support calculation using your prior and current income amounts, and advise you.
