Child Support

Understanding Child Support in Texas: Protecting Your Child's Future

When parents separate, ensuring a child’s financial stability becomes a top priority. In Texas, child support is designed to help cover essential expenses like housing, healthcare, education, and daily living costs — so your child’s quality of life is maintained, no matter the family structure.

How Texas Calculates Child Support

Child support in Texas is determined by state guidelines, which consider factors like:

  • The paying parent’s net income

  • The number of children needing support

  • Health insurance and medical expenses

  • Special needs or educational costs

While the formula provides a starting point, every family situation is unique. Courts may adjust support orders to reflect circumstances that fall outside the standard calculations.
