New York City child support lawyer Juan Luciano Discusses the Calculation of Child Support in NYC

Jan 3, 2023

January 03, 2023 - /PressAdvantage/ - New York City child support lawyer Juan Luciano (https://divorcelawfirmnyc.com/child-support-lawyer/) releases a new article that explains the NYC child support system. The lawyer mentions that no one enters into a marriage hoping that it will end. It is very important to look for the best possible experience during the divorce process especially if there are children involved.

“Each marital partner comes at divorce and amount of child support from a unique perspective. In many cases, that is one of the reasons for divorce in the first place. But when it comes to co-parenting children during and after a divorce, each partner is tasked with the need to come together to put the children’s needs ahead of their own. This applies equally to both the custodial and the noncustodial parent,” says the New York City child support lawyer.

The lawyer explains that clients often want to know the calculation of child support. This will depend on both the income of each party and the custody situation of the couple. New York State family law requires parents to support their children until 21 years of age or until they become financially independent.

Attorney Luciano says that the noncustodial parent is required to pay child support to the custodial parent for the benefit of the child. In New York’s child support model, the proportions are fixed and applied to the gross income of both parents depending on the number of children.

In the article, attorney Luciano discusses that for 1 child, the child support should be 17% of the combined gross income of both parents. 25% for 2 children, 29% for 3 children, 31% for four children, and 31% for 5 children. A cost of living review should also take place every 2 years.

Furthermore, once the family court made its decision, the noncustodial parent must pay child support. If the noncustodial parent fails to pay child support, they may be enforced by the other parent with the assistance of a child support lawyer.

According to the New York City child support lawyer, “Over the years, many things may change in the lives and circumstances of co-parents and their families, including physical and financial changes. These may indicate the need for a modification of the child support order. Any change must be deemed “substantial” and fall into one of three categories.”

Lastly, the divorce attorney emphasizes that it is very important to seek the help of an experienced lawyer to ensure that they understand their rights and responsibilities in the case.

Harris predicts Democrats will win midterm, slams Trump for weakening Korea alliance

Former U.S. Vice President Kamala Harris predicted Wednesday that the Democrats will win both the House of Representatives and Senate in November’s midterm elections, while using a Seoul appearance to deliver a pointed critique of U.S. President Donald Trump’s handling of the South Korea-U.S. alliance and his overtures toward North Korea. Speaking at the 2026 Asan Memorial Lecture, Harris said the electoral map is shifting in Democrats’ favor. “We are facing a lot of obstacles, but the Democrats are going to win. I believe certainly the House and ... each day presents a new reason to think that of winning the Senate as well,” she said, noting that the number of competitive House seats that could flip from Republican to Democrat had grown from 40 to 46 in recent days. When asked about a potential 2028 presidential run, she sidestepped the question. “(The year) 2028, from my perspective, doesn’t matter if we don’t win 2026,” she said. The remarks came as Trump faces declining approval ratings following the outbreak of the U.S.-Iran war in late February, with congressional

Timeline of NK POW row between Seoul, Kyiv

The dispute between Seoul and Kyiv over the disclosed transfer of two North Korean prisoners of war (POW) to South Korea began with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's announcement of the move to world leaders on Sept. 23. "Recently, we sent two North Korean prisoners of war to the Republic of Korea," he said during his U.N. General Assembly speech in New York, referring to the official name of South Korea. President Lee Jae Myung wrote on social media the following day: "The Ukrainian side's decision to disclose the information in violation of a confidentiality agreement is deeply regrettable." He said the two sides had agreed to keep the transfer a secret because it is a "highly sensitive matter with significant implications for diplomacy, national security and the situation on the Korean Peninsula. Yet Dmytro Lytvyn, communications adviser to Zelenskyy, in a statement on Facebook denied any such agreement existed. In a Sept. 27 statement, Sung Ki-hong, South Korea's senior presidential secretary for public communication, criticized the Ukrainian government's handling of the issu
