Protecting Your Rights with a Child Support Lawyer in Toronto

Child support is one of the most common – and most contested – issues in family law. Whether you’re paying or receiving support, the stakes are high. You want fair calculations, consistent payments, and legal protection if circumstances change.

At Krol & Krol, our Toronto child support lawyers have represented parents across hundreds of support cases under Ontario’s Child Support Guidelines. We combine sharp legal strategy with clear communication so you know exactly where you stand and how to move forward.

Your children deserve stability. You deserve fairness. We make both possible.

Why Work with a Child Support Lawyer

Ontario child support law looks straightforward – but the reality is complex. Income disputes, shared parenting time, special expenses, and enforcement can all turn a “simple” case into a legal fight.

Working with a child support lawyer ensures:

  • Accurate calculations under the Child Support Guidelines
  • Proper disclosure of all income sources, including self-employment and business income
  • Fair sharing of special or extraordinary expenses (medical, education, activities)
  • Enforceable agreements or court orders that protect you long-term
  • Strong representation in court or mediation if disputes arise
  • Efficient modifications when your financial situation or parenting arrangements change

Without representation, you risk paying too much, receiving too little, or signing an unenforceable agreement.

FAQs About Child Support

Support is based on the federal Child Support Guidelines, which consider the payor’s income and number of children.

Yes. With shared parenting time, support is usually offset based on each parent’s income and parenting time.

The Family Responsibility Office (FRO) enforces payments through wage garnishment, license suspension, or court action.

Yes. If income, employment, or parenting arrangements change, either parent can request a variation.

Our lawyers examine tax records, business statements, and financial disclosure to ensure accurate income calculations. When needed, we work with accounting professionals and their income assessments.

These are considered special or extraordinary expenses, which may be shared between parents in addition to basic support.

Support usually continues until a child is not dependent, like finishing school full-time, though exceptions exist.
