CONSULTATION OF A LAWYER ON ALIMONY

When a couple gets married or just decides to have a child, people rarely raise the question of how to share the support if the relationship does not work out. However, in practice it is different. When relationships do not add up, and the child becomes the only common theme of the parents, it is necessary to fairly distribute responsibilities for its maintenance. It is optimal if people can agree in a civilized manner and without involving the judicial authorities to resolve this issue in the manner of concluding a contract.

Our team will help to conclude this agreement so that it is fair and beneficial for both parties, as well as provide legal support for its notarization. However, it is not always possible to resolve the issue in this way if one of the parties is against it.

Consultation is the beginning of effective interaction with a lawyer

Regarding the most common questions discussed with a child support lawyer, there are:

• The mechanism for receiving alimony in a hard cash amount for the unemployed.
• The probability of receiving alimony from the father of a child employed abroad.
• Possibility and order of departure abroad of the debtor on alimony.
• The possibility of increasing the amount of alimony.

Sometimes people read information on the topic of alimony that is not objective and truthful. This will hinder the quality of defending their rights and interests of the child. For example, there is a myth that it is impossible to collect alimony from a father working abroad. In fact, this is not so. There is a very clear and effective mechanism that allows you to do this with reference to the average salary of the region where such a father lives. The same applies to a foreigner, who can be sued both through Ukrainian and through a foreign court.

No less relevant are the questions regarding exemption from the payment of alimony or an increase in their size. When it comes to increasing the amount of alimony, such a result can be achieved in court. When it comes to exemption from their payment, this option is possible subject to the transfer of real estate (apartment, house, part of real estate or land) in favor of the child.

It often happens that a parent decides not to sue for property and leave his part of the housing in favor of the child. But it can be hard for a person in a new place to start everything from nothing, being burdened with child support obligations. In this case, the parents of the child may conclude an agreement on the waiver of alimony on the basis of the transfer of real estate. We will advise on this issue, help in drafting the contract and provide support for its notarization.

The above are just some of the child support issues we can help with. In fact, the range of our specialization in this topic is much wider and covers assistance in various life situations related to the recovery of alimony.
