Parker Child Support Lawyer
Award-Winning Legal Support Backed By 10 Years of Experience
Child support is a court-ordered payment made by a noncustodial parent to a custodial parent to help pay for the child’s needs. Child support is typically paid until the child turns 19 or graduates high school, whichever comes first. In some cases, a child with special needs may require child support to continue into adulthood. Child support is intended to help pay for a child’s basic needs, including housing, food, and clothing.
Colorado has a child support formula that is used to determine how much child support should be paid. This formula takes into account a number of factors, such as the income of both parents, the number of children, and the amount of parenting time each parent has. While the formula is used in most cases, there are some instances in which it may be deviated from.
Whether you are the parent who will be paying child support or the parent who will be receiving it, you need to make sure your child’s best interests are protected. At Moreno Family Law, we can help you understand what to expect and advocate for your rights and interests through every stage of the process.

"They’ll fight for you and get the job done."
I want to share my honest experience with my attorney Megan Fiesinger and my paralegal Christian Cunningham.
After being in a 16-year marriage, I needed help to finally move on. As an immigrant married to a U.S. citizen, the process felt overwhelming, especially with valuable assets involved and an uncooperative spouse. But thanks to these two incredible women, I never felt alone.
Megan and Christian fought for me day and night. They listened, gave sound advice, and guided me every step of the way — even when my husband tried to make things as hard as possible. They showed me strength, patience, and how to handle such a difficult situation with confidence.
Although the divorce could have been completed in five months, the delays caused by his refusal to cooperate made it take longer. But through it all, they remained patient, supportive, and persistent — and in the end, we got it done.
I am beyond grateful and finally feel free and at peace. These amazing, powerful women helped me through one of the hardest times in my life, and I’ll forever appreciate their compassion and dedication.
If you’re going through a tough situation, don’t hesitate to trust them. They’ll fight for you and get the job done.

"Their work was prompt and efficient"I could not give a higher recommendation. From the start, Megan and her team were compassionate and immediately began helping me with my case. Their work was prompt and efficient. Every step of the way, they made sure that I understood the process and ensured that they were meeting the goals we had set from the start. I would use them again every time. I feel very fortunate to have found them.- Lott D.
Child Support and Shared Parenting Arrangements
In Colorado, child support is calculated using a formula that considers various factors, including the income of both parents and the amount of time each parent spends with the child. When parents share parenting responsibilities more equally, it can significantly impact how child support is determined.
