Child Support
Child Support is one of the most common cases in Family Law after the divorce of a married couple or the end of a relationship where there is a child or children involved. Child Support is also known as child maintenance because ongoing payments are made by a parent for the financial benefit of that child. Generally the law requires that the parent paying child support do so until either the child is no longer a minor (unless the child has special needs), if the child joins the military or if an adoption takes place or any other legal process. In some cases, child support is paid for the care and support of children even when a relationship never existed in the first place.

Spousal Support
Spousal support, also called alimony, is the term used when one spouse pays another after a divorce for the purpose of maintaining the former spouse’s standard of living during the marriage. During a marriage, couples tend to share expenses and in most cases one spouse will care of the children while the other one works full time to support the family. When these couple go through a divorce, it is very common for one spouse to be untrained or to have been out of the workforce for such a long time that it becomes difficult for them to get a job right away or a position that allows them to continue their expected standard of living and spousal support helps during that time. Spousal support, or alimony, is highly based on facts in the state of California including the length of marriage and the standard of living during the time of the marriage, the court can decide to award temporary or permanent spousal support to one party. Alternatively, the parties may choose to negotiate a settlement (subject to the approval of the court) which provides for alimony or avoids it all together. It is also possible to opt out of alimony through a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement which is also something that James J. Kenny is experienced in.
