Child Custody
Child custody can be an incredibly divisive issue; if both parents believe that they deserve sole custody, the result could be a long and drawn-out courtroom ordeal. Alane Ortega understands how easily a custody battle can rip a family apart, but she also knows that children can come to great harm if the wrong parent is awarded sole custody. She seeks to facilitate amicable custody arrangements whenever possible, but if this is not a viable approach, she will utilize the aggressive courtroom tactics needed to ensure that custody is given to the appropriate party. In cases involving joint custody, Alane Ortega can assist with the creation of a residential plan that both parents can abide by — and more importantly, a plan that meets the child’s needs.
Child Support
In Arizona, a complex formula is used to determine how much each parent owes in child support. Ultimately, child support obligations depend on the amount of time parents spend with their children, as well as the income of each parent. Planning for the future can be difficult when child support hangs in the balance, but Alane M. Ortega can help you determine how much you can expect to pay or how much you will receive in child support.
If you have lost your job or recently incurred significant medical expenses, you may be eligible for a child support modification. Alane Ortega will guide you through this complicated process and help you adjust your child support obligations to better reflect your current financial situation.
