When child custody is being decided, it is also necessary to discuss child support. The State of Texas has established guidelines to determine child support based upon the parent’s net resources. The definition of net resources is quite long — for most people, it means all wage and salary income and other compensation for personal services, interest, dividends, royalty income, self-employment income and net rental income, less social security taxes and federal income tax withholding for a single person claiming one personal exemption and the standard deduction. We have experience in calculating this figure and presenting it to the Court in a manner that will produce the best possible results.
