Divorce & Children

Spousal and Child Support

In the state of Wisconsin, child support is calculated according to a presumption that both parents are responsible for maintaining a decent standard of living for their child. The amount of child support is based on the Percentage of Income Standard, which takes into account both parents' income.

The standard percentage for child support is as follows:

17% of income for one child
25% - 2 children
29% - 3 children
31% - 4 children
34% - 5 or more children

Nevertheless, there are some cases in which the court departs from this standard. Special child support guidelines may be entered if it is determined that it would be fair to the child or/and the parents. For example, if the parties have an extremely low or very high income, if parents share physical custody (meaning, each party spends more than 25% of the time with their child), or if the parents split physical custody of the children (when it is more than one child in a family, and siblings live with different parents).

Our smooth breakup allowed us to file for uncontested divorce and we just decided to arrange it as simply as possible. Online divorce seemed to be a good idea, and now I'm sure we did it right. All the papers were prepared with no issues and I'm pleased with the price. Thanks.

I think that all the papers related to a certain county with its own legal nuances would be prepared correctly only by a Wisconsin-based company. So that's why I used wisconsinonlinedivorce and I was really satisfied. My divorce papers were completed in a timely manner and I had no troubles with filing. That was a really smooth process and you can be confident with your filing.

It always seemed to me that divorce must be a much more complicated process. I couldn't imagine how I would cope with that. Where do I get all those papers, how to fill them out and where to go and what to do? So, I was really glad I found wisconsinonlinedivorce.com and they took care of all the paperwork and gave me clear instructions on how to file with the court. That made the whole process so much easier!
