In Washington, DC, both parents are responsible for contributing to the financial support of their children, regardless of their relationship status. Child support ensures that the child's living expenses, health care, and education are provided for. This obligation can sometimes be clouded by a variety of situations, including during and after divorce proceedings or when seeking child support from an absent parent.

Factors Affecting Child Support Determinations in DC

Child support in Washington, DC, is determined based on both parents' income and the child's needs. The court considers several factors, including:

  • Each parent’s income and earning potential
  • The child’s living arrangements
  • Health care and education costs
  • Childcare expenses
  • Any special needs of the child

In Washington, DC, child custody determinations are based on the "best interests of the child" standard. This guiding principle ensures that the court prioritizes the well-being of the child in making decisions regarding custody and visitation. Custody is typically broken down into two main categories: legal custody and physical custody.
