Time has come for an updated financial statement.. 3 years since last time. This time.. 50.50 arrangement.
What are reasonable expenses? From case law, for offset cases, it seems judges sometimes add up both household expenses and aducate a percentage to each parent. So higher total expense(closely matched) might be a good thing if they order offset but if there is no offset,, it can be a bad thing as there is a higher cost to be covered by child support given the increased costs of shared parenting.
Both mom and I living with parents.
Ex: income minimum wage
1000 rent
120 cellphone
480 car payments
Insurance
Gas
And other stuff
Me:
500 rent
45 cellphone
300 car insurance and gas
Approx. 800 a month legal fees
Costs above make sense and reasonable? What do you typically put for children clothing, and other areas in financial statement?
My source of income is E.I. and I am finalizing a Legal Aid Certificate to pay my lawyer since I don't have a job moving forward. But still have a big bill from my lawyer coming soon for work done in past 6 months.
