Can Remarriage Impact an Existing Child Support Order?
One of the most important of all divorce settlement terms is the child support order.

Child support is payment made by the non-custodial parent for the care of their child. Child support typically becomes part of a court order and is therefore required as per the order.

The good news is that should you change your mind, you have the ability to backtrack and, up until the moment the divorce is finalized, you can withdraw your petition for divorce.
