The support process with an Arab lawyer
Our Arabic-speaking support attorneys guide you through every step of your case in Clifton.
1
Income Analysis
We gather complete income information for both parents — W-2s, tax returns, business records, and overseas income. For self-employed parents or those with cash businesses, forensic analysis may be needed.
2
Guideline Calculation
Each state has a formula based on both parents' income and the custody arrangement. We calculate the guideline amount and identify any applicable deviations (medical costs, travel expenses, special needs).
3
Negotiation or Hearing
We negotiate with the other parent for a fair amount or present the case to a judge. Deviations from guidelines must be justified. We advocate for amounts that reflect the true financial picture.
4
Order Entry & Enforcement
The court enters the support order, typically with income withholding (automatic deduction from wages). We ensure the order is properly entered and set up for enforcement.

Client review
“My ex-husband left the country and stopped paying child support. My lawyer tracked his US assets and got a court order to garnish his rental income from a property in Passaic. Three kids and I finally have consistent support coming in every month. She went above and beyond.”

Client review
“My husband left and moved back to Ramallah. Getting divorced when the other spouse is overseas and unresponsive is a nightmare. My lawyer handled service of process through international channels, got a default judgment, and I was able to move on with my life. The whole process took about nine months.”

Client review
“My ex wanted to move our sons to Morocco permanently. As their father, I had equal custody rights. My lawyer argued that removing them from their school and community was not in their best interest. The judge agreed and blocked the move. I see my boys every week now.”
