Recent Articles and Georgia Case Law

As in most years, the Georgia General Assembly passed, and the Governor signed into law a number of Family Law changes.

Most relevant to parties in a divorce with minor children or other litigation involving minor children, such as but not limited to

legitimations or actions for child support or child custody modifications, the manner in which child support obligations is calculated, adjusted, and applied has undergone significant changes. Specifically, the courts will use a more standardized and formulative approach that includes, among other things, the amount of the actual time spent by the minor child with each parent. Such change will require the parties to count the actual number of days the minor child is with each party and require the Judge to consider the number of days in determining the final amount of any child support obligation. Other legal changes were created.

Legal strategies exist so as to minimize the impact of these changes on your individual case or maximize the

effect on your matter, whichever may apply to you.

If these issues apply to you, you should make an appointment for specific legal advice and direction. A consultation may assist in

enhancing your legal position.
