Divorce Advice for Men | Fathers Rights Divorce | Child Custody

Question:

A few months after our divorce was final and I was ordered to pay alimony, my ex-wife began receiving Social Security Disability.

How will this effect the spousal support I pay her? Can it increase or decrease based on her receiving payments that were not figured in the divorce?

Question:

I am paying child support for my 21-year-old son who was diagnosed as mentally handicapped, though he is capable of working and functioning independently.

After visiting several psychiatrists who deemed our son just had a behavior disorder, my ex-wife found one who agreed with her that he was mentally handicapped so my child support would continue.

Will I continue having to pay child support indefinitely so long as my child is living with my ex-wife and is diagnosed as mentally handicapped?

Question:

At the time of my divorce I was not disabled, but I now receive disability benefits and my retirement pay has thus been reduced.

My ex-wife had a clause entered in the decree stating that I could not claim disability and reduce my retired pay.

Must I pay her the money that was reduced because of my disability?

Question:

I pay child support for my son who is now receiving benefits from the state because of my permanent disability. He was awarded more in benefits than what my monthly child support payments are.

Can my son's benefits he is receiving because of my disability be allocated on my behalf as my monthly obligation for child support?

Question:

My divorce question is about modifying child support while temporarily out of work.

I was recently diagnosed with depression from my divorce and was placed on short term disability leave with a huge cut in my salary.

Can I reduce my child support payments until I am working full-time again? If I file for a modification, will it just be increased again once I'm back working?
