What is the name of your state? Illinois
I was never married to my sons father, he does pay child support but has not seen his son in 7 years. After 5 years I decided to modify child support as my son is costing me more as he gets older. I am a single parent. He does claim his son every other year. He called furious and said he would get a lawyer and claim him every year if I went for a modification. Does he have a right to do this and what are his chances of getting to claim his son every year. I read something about a law for never married parents and wonder will this help me.
