Child support issues commonly arise right after a divorce. Contrary to what some parents believe, it is not intended to punish one parent or reward the other. Child custody is for the benefit of a child and the obligation for a parent to pay child support.

There are two types of child custody:

• Legal custody- the parent with legal child custody has the right to make all decisions in regards to a child’s education, health care, religion and overall well being of the child.
• Physical custody- the child resides with a parent awarded with custody. The non-custodial parent may be awarded visitation rights. The parent with whom the child is under custody with is referred to as the custodial parent. The non-custodial parent is typically responsible for supporting the custodial parent.
