Professional Athletes and Child Support

Posted By The Graves Law Firm || 29-Jan-2016

For professional athletes, whose years of hard work and dedication have paid off, success is often marred by those who take advantage of their fame and fortune. One of the most common issues that professional football and basketball players face are unplanned pregnancy scandals that result in highly-priced child support judgments.

At The Graves Law Firm, we know that child support cases are complex enough without the added public attention of sports media, and we employ our experience, discretion, and efficiency to handle your case quickly and effectively.

Our first priority when representing a professional athlete is to establish paternity, to ensure that your rights are acknowledged and protected. Once paternity has been established, we will then go to work to ensure that the mother of your child does not take advantage of your fortune.

While courts will consider the income of the paying party when determining an appropriate child support payment, our job is to ensure that your financial resources are not exhausted and that you do not end up with an overpriced judgment.

Child support should be enough to cover the following:

  • Food
  • Clothing
  • Shelter
  • Medical Care
  • Education
  • Entertainment and extracurricular activities
  • College

Pursuing Custody & Visitation

Of course, beyond negotiating an acceptable child support judgment, our Los Angeles attorneys also understand that, as a father, you have certain rights to your child. Should you wish to pursue child custody or visitation, our team of family lawyers can provide aggressive legal advocacy to help you fight for your parental rights.
