How to Establish Child Support

Authored By: Department of the Attorney General

Information

Child support can be established in one of two ways: 1. Child Support Enforcement Agency (CSEA) or 2. Family Court Order typically through a Divorce or Paternity case. The process of obtaining a Family Court child support order differs from the process of obtaining an administrative child support order, but the legal effect of both types of orders is the same.
