Volume 8: Monthly Net Disposable Income $60,000-$79,000 | Children Ages 6-10

Complex Parenting: Large Families with Professional Income

The eighth volume combines professional-level income analysis with the complexities of supporting numerous school-age children. Jeremy J. Salvador’s research benefits attorneys managing multi-issue dissolution proceedings, parents planning for substantial financial obligations, mediators structuring realistic payment schedules, and appellate specialists addressing guideline calculation disputes on review.

Addressing monthly net disposable income from $60,000 through $79,000 for six to ten children, Volume 8 explores scenarios where support obligations could approach or exceed half of obligor income. The volume provides critical analysis of § 4055(b)(7) hardship deductions, demonstrating circumstances where guideline amounts might render obligors unable to meet basic self-support needs. Calculations incorporate age-appropriate expense variations, recognizing that ten-year-olds require different financial support than six-year-olds, particularly regarding clothing, nutrition, educational materials, and recreational activities.
