Can I get financial support for myself and my children?
Yes. As long as paternity is established, you are entitled
to receive support for your child. But the court makes separate decisions when
awarding support for you and your children, so it is possible that you may only
be able to get support for your children, and not for yourself.
Support for your child: Generally, the court
will determine how much money each parent will pay to support a child. The
court almost always uses set guidelines in a child support obligation worksheet
to determine how much support you will receive. If you would like to see all of
the factors that go into determining support, you can visit Wisconsin
