My daughters bio father died and my husband and I would like to just change her last name to ours instead of going through with an adoption. How do I go about doing this? Do I do this is family law or civil? Her name was changed in family law court once during the court battles but she has never...
What is the name of your state? California
The judge in our CS case made an error in child support add ons. She told the father that he only had to pay $50.00 of the $475.00 a month I pay for daycare. She said that since my husband has an income and we both work that his income will supplement...

My daughters father has taken me to court several times since her birth to get custody but has only succeeded in getting supervised visitation due to her age and having no relationship with her. He has been court ordered to take an age appropriate...
You have been in California long enough to file. Do it before he tries to take off with the kids. They told me if there are no court papers giving custody and control to either parent than whatever parent has them is the one with custody. Meaning the other parent has every right to come pick...
Yes you have a case. If the father will give up his rights then you can adopt. Even if the father does not give up his rights you can file for termination of his rights because of the "no contact". Just because a parent is paying CS does not meen that you can not adopt. I know in my state...
First of all when your son turns 18 you need to file for a modification of child support..if not sooner. No it doesn't cut the payments in half when he turns 18. if your paying $600 now then probably $200 will be dropped off your support payments. But you should file for a modification sooner...
Actually....thats not entirely true. You don't have to have court ordered custody in order to receive child support. As long as you have physical custody even without a court order of change you can go to Child support services and ask for them to get child support, they file and do all the...
First of all how has he been paying for support for a child that isn't his? Was there a DNA test? Paternity has to be established before child support can be pursued. If he said he was the father and the mother agreed to that then paternity was probably established. I know in my state a father...
Wow...So all someone has to do is hide till there kid is 28 and they are obsolved from all child support? Well in my state ..California..you don't get off that easy.
I've been corrected. The parent can go after the other parent till their dieing days, but a kid can't. I suppose they figure your still here you've been supported and the rest is to pay back mom or dad or whoever had custody. Thank you for correcting me on this one.
Only if there was a court order for support can you go after the man that was supposed to pay it. Otherwise you can't. But yes, if there is a court order for support you can try to collect it until his dieing days....even afterwards from his estate.
Actually...yes he does have every right to her that a biological parent has. He is now her father because there was an adoption. But he would have to take you court for physical custody of her. He can't just take her unless you both have full physical custody. Not sure how you've gotten around...
First of all if there is no formal order for child support and you want to know what you should be paying. You need to know what her income is. then go to this web site http://www.alllaw.com/calculators/Childsupport/california/ and it will give you a rough idea of what kind of child support...
