Q: My divorce papers say he is responsible for 35% and he has recently
stopped taking care of our son and taking advantage of the situation.
A: David's Answer:
It's probably within the discretion of the Magistrate to do
so, but depends in part on whether there's another, cheaper alternative
out there. Usually in cases (& in my experience) where a Magistrate
orders paid child care regarding a relative caring for the child, it's
where the relative has to travel to the house to babysit. You're best
advised to schedule a consult with a Westchester Family Law attorney for
a full assessment.
