My wife and I are separated and were married for about seven years. She makes $52,000 / year while I make $56,000. Since our separation seven months ago, I have had my boys (ages 6 and 5) about 65% of the time. She also has two other sons living with her (ages 12 and 14), but is receiving child support for them. Currently, I pay all of the child care expenses, totalling $1,225 per month, as well as all the medical and dental insurance expenses, totalling $400 per month. My question is this: how does a judge in California determine child support payments? Is it a method that is subjective or objective? I have a consultation with an attorney in about a week, but I thought I'd try here first. Thanks!

every state is differently (slightly) in the amounts, but it goes by BOTH parents incomes, number of children in the case, and time spent with the child(ren). here is a child support calculator; just click on your state and fill it in. its to give a general idea as to what will be ordered, so its not exact.... it doesnt include other things that may be factored in.
