Arlington Family Law Attorneys

In Texas, child support orders may include “add-on expenses.” These add-on expenses typically cover necessary services such as healthcare and childcare. For example, one parent may be ordered to carry health insurance, while both may be responsible for splitting unreimbursed medical expenses. Childcare costs may also be divided between the parents, especially if they are necessary for a parent to work or attend school.

These expenses are calculated separately from the standard monthly support amount and are allocated proportionally based on each parent’s income. Add-on expenses are enforceable by the court just like base child support, and failure to comply can lead to legal consequences. If you’re negotiating or modifying a child support order, make sure these additional expenses are detailed in the agreement to avoid future disputes.

Working with our knowledgeable Arlington family law attorney can help make sure that all aspects of your child’s needs are addressed fairly and that your financial obligations are clearly defined and manageable. Our approach to handling these cases is guided by our core values: client focus, communication, quality, integrity, and collaboration.

We take the time to thoroughly explain your rights and obligations, so that you understand how these additional costs are calculated, enforced, and divided. Our team prioritizes transparent communication and keeps you informed at every stage.

Because no two families are the same, we tailor our strategy to meet your specific needs, striking a balance between legal excellence, compassion, and clarity. Whether you're negotiating new child support terms or enforcing an existing order, our diverse and collaborative family law team works together to provide thorough, cost-effective representation.

We’re here to protect your child’s best interests and help you make empowered decisions for their future. Let us walk you through the process with the respect, support, and legal insight you deserve. Contact us today to schedule a meeting with our child support lawyer to review your case.

Frequently Asked Questions

As our personal injury lawyer who has been rated by Super Lawyers can explain, a personal injury is an injury you sustain due to someone else’s negligence. At the end of the day, this simply means someone was not paying attention or doing what is required of them. For example, if someone is texting while driving and they hit a car causing injuries, that is considered a personal injury. Another example is a landlord that is aware there are issues with a sidewalk but they do not fix it and someone trips and falls.
The moment you have a family law issue or questions arise, you should reach out to a family lawyer. Whether you're considering divorce, dealing with child custody matters, or facing any family law situation, our experienced team is ready to provide guidance throughout the entire process. We believe in educating each client to help them make the best decision for their specific situation, and we offer free consultations so there's no financial risk in reaching out. Even if you're already in the middle of a legal proceeding, an experienced attorney can still provide valuable assistance. The rule of thumb remains: if you're uncertain about any family law matter, you should contact a lawyer rather than take on these legal issues alone.
It is very common for people to shy away from estate planning because they do not understand the process. It can seem overwhelming going into the unknown. However, our team of estate planning lawyers is here to make the process as easy as possible. They have a set of questions they ask that directs what paperwork you need to collect or records you need to bring. Our team has a 10.0 rating from Avvo, demonstrating our commitment to working closely with clients. We simply ask about assets you might have such as a house or who you wish to leave things to, and then we compile that into estate planning documentation for you.
