Our experienced Rochester Family Law Attorney discusses time length to pay child support in this article. Then, contact our attorney to get started today,
Many times as an experienced Rochester Family Law Attorney, I am asked how long child support payments can last. Child support in New York State is payable until a child turns 21 unless that child does something before they turn 21 that makes them emancipated. Emancipation can occur if a child joins the military or if a child becomes self-sufficient. I advise my clients as a Rochester Family Law Attorney, that a child becomes self-sufficient if they’re able to meet their own needs and obligations on their own.
