What is Child Support?
A payment from one parent to another parent of minor children as a contribution to the ordinary expenses associated with the care and support of the child. In Colorado, child support is calculated using child support guidelines (calculator app). The Court can vary from the guidelines, but most Courts, including the Denver Courts, will not vary from the guidelines without an extremely compelling reason.
