Description:
This program will examine tactics for establishing that a payor qualifies as an extraordinarily high earner under Family Code section 4057(b)(3) and making the case for the children’s reasonable needs. The discussion will take a holistic approach to a high earner case with consideration for the pervasive affluence in our communities, the psychological impacts of affluence and a lifestyle disparity in households, and the economics of proving your client has an extraordinarily high income and quantifying children’s reasonable needs in light of the extraordinarily high earning parent’s standard of living. We will also look at how to separate the custodial parent’s needs from the children’s reasonable needs and whether there is an implicit limit on how much a custodial parent may benefit from increased child support.
