Child Support Calculator

If my ex-husband verbally agreed to pay me a certain amount of child support for our two kids, deposited this exact amount for a few months and now wants to file child support to give me a lower amount, will he be granted? And will I lose the amount he agreed to pay because the child support calculator indicates a lesser amount?

Do you have an attorney?

It's entirely possible.

No, I need one, don't I?

Why do you believe you are entitled to more than the guideline child support amount?
