Alimony and revision: legal aid information


Questioner

my question is, my husband pays child support for his son who will be 19 in november. Now he is going to work full time. Are we within our rights to ask for a reduction for the son or will we immediately get a lawsuit

Lawyer

If the circumstances of one of the ex-spouses (or children) change, this may result in the established maintenance amount no longer being reasonable and you can invoke the right of moderation and request a review of the maintenance obligation. You can also buy out the maintenance with your son.

Lawyer

In the case of child support, the child's needs, even if he or she works, are automatically assumed up to the age of 21. However, it may be the case that if the son's monthly income is a reasonable amount, it could be judged in court that he can fully or partially provide for his or her own needs with this and that this therefore has consequences for the amount of support that your husband would have to pay. You can try to agree with the son that a lower amount or no more support will be paid. If that does not work, it will be advisable to start legal proceedings without further ado. If you wish, you can contact me. I have experience with these types of cases and work nationwide.
