Northwest Indiana Child Custody & Support Lawyers
Child custody and support arrangements without the framework of marriage can be a daunting process, one deeply intertwined with emotional and legal challenges. It is crucial for unmarried individuals facing such battles to understand that there are specific laws designed to protect your child’s best interests and your rights as a parent. At Worthley Law LLC, our professional guidance offers clarity and reassurance during these trying times, helping to keep you well-informed and prepared to make decisions that will foster a positive future for you and your child. With knowledge and a compassionate approach, we stand ready to support you through each step of this intricate process.
Child Custody for Unmarried Parents
For unmarried parents, establishing child custody can be a pivotal issue. In Indiana, when a child is born to unmarried parents, the mother is automatically granted sole custody unless paternity is established and the father seeks custody rights. Our legal team can help you through the process of legally establishing paternity, which is the initial step towards securing your rights as a father. Once paternity is established, we can assist you in negotiating a parenting time arrangement that serves your child’s best interests and, if necessary, represent you in court to secure your custody rights.
We understand that negotiation and mediation are often preferable to court battles. Worthley Law LLC offers mediation services aimed at helping parents reach amicable agreements regarding custody and parenting time. However, our experienced trial attorneys are ready to aggressively represent your interests in court when agreements cannot be reached.
Child Support for Unmarried Parents
Determining child support is another crucial aspect of family law for unmarried parents. Child support in Indiana is calculated based on the parents’ income, the child’s needs, and the amount of time the child spends with each parent, among other factors. Our attorneys work to present all relevant financial information accurately and advocate for a fair child support order that reflects the true needs of the child and the financial abilities of both parents.
At Worthley Law LLC, we also understand that financial circumstances can change. Whether you need to modify an existing child support order due to a change in income, employment status, or another significant life event, our team can guide you through the modification process to seek an adjustment that reflects your current situation.
