Modifying Child Support After
a Change in Income

Child support in Florida follows a guideline calculation based on both parents’ incomes and the time-sharing arrangement. When either parent’s income changes significantly, the support figure may no longer be accurate. Brodzki Jacobs can run the updated calculation and petition the court for a revised order that reflects the current numbers.

A parent who simply stops paying or informally adjusts the amount without a court order risks arrears, because only a judge can formally change the support obligation.
