Child Support

Caring South Carolina Family Law Attorneys Work to Resolve Child Support Issues

Dedicated lawyers advocate for your children’s financial well-being in the Rock Hill area

You are not alone in your responsibility to pay for your child’s education, extracurricular activities, clothes, food, healthcare and other basic needs. A child is entitled to financial support from both parents, and neither parent should be made to take on more than their fair share of the costs following a divorce or breakup. The attorneys at Gillen & Pickelsimer, LLC negotiate and work to uphold fair arrangements for the financial care of children. When our clients in South Carolina are involved in stressful child support battles, our priority is to achieve settlements and decisions that ensure your children are fully supported.

Experienced Mediators Seek Fair Child Support Agreements

When parents are respectful and cordial with one another, children can grow up feeling loved and supported. Through the structured process of mediation, parents are often able to put aside their differences and focus on a topic on which they tend to agree — the importance of their child’s well-being. 

Mediation presents a forum for creating fair child support plans that allow both parents to share in the financial obligations of raising their children. Our skilled negotiators can guide the process toward equitable solutions that save clients time and money.

Committed attorneys help parents during family court appearances
Sometimes, litigation is the only way to obtain the financial support your child deserves. Our attorneys are strong advocates in family court.

Child support orders remain in effect unless the court modifies the original order. If your child’s other parent fails to make court-ordered payments, Gillen & Pickelsimer, LLC can ask the court to compel the enforcement of the support order. When one parent suffers an injury or loses a job, fairness might dictate at least a temporary shift of the financial burden to the other parent. Our attorneys can guide you through the proper legal procedures to modify your child support payments to accommodate your changing financial circumstances.

Enforcement of Child Support Orders

At Gillen & Pickelsimer, we understand that receiving child support payments can be crucial for the well-being of your child. Unfortunately, not all parents comply with court-ordered child support payments. If you are having difficulty receiving the child support payments you are owed, we can help.

Our experienced Rock Hill family law attorneys can assist you with enforcing child support orders through various legal means, such as:

  • Wage garnishment
  • Seizure of assets
  • Contempt of court proceedings
  • Driver's license suspension

We will work tirelessly to ensure that the non-paying parent is held accountable for their obligations and that you receive the child support payments you are entitled to. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and learn more about your legal options.
