Understanding Child Support

The idea behind child support is that all children deserve financial backing from both parents. Both parties are responsible for the child, and this best serves the child's needs. As your team for child support cases, it is our job at Stephen D. Stroh, Attorney at Law to make sure that the support is fair and sufficient.

In Nebraska, the court issues child support based on the income of both parties. The court will consider each income, the amount of time the child spends with each parent, contributions to retirement, and the cost of health insurance. To make this distinction, the court needs accurate and verified information.

At Stephen D. Stroh, Attorney at Law, we are proud to be child custody lawyers, and we can help you with your case. We'll make sure the incomes are accurately reported with all factors considered:

• Average income of each party
• Commissions for each party
• Regular overtime and bonuses for each party
• Monthly health insurance premiums for the children

Nebraska Revised Statute 42-3641 outlines the legal provisions for child support in Nebraska. The statute mandates that all orders for child support shall be established in accordance with the provisions of the Nebraska Child Support Guidelines unless the court finds that one or both parties have produced sufficient evidence to rebut the presumption that the application of the guidelines will result in a fair and equitable child support order. The guidelines provide a rebuttable presumption that the amount of child support to be paid is the amount resulting from the application of the guidelines. The guidelines are based on the net income of the parent(s) and the number of children for whom support is being sought. The court may use the amount at $20,000 plus: 10 percent of net income above $20,000 for one, two, and three children; 12 percent of net income above $20,000 for four children; 13 percent of net income for five children; and 14 percent of net income for six children as a rebuttable presumption. Even in very low income cases, except in cases of disability or incarceration where a lower amount may be justified, a minimum monthly support of $50, or 10 percent of the obligor’s net income, whichever is greater, per month should be set.
