CAN I SETTLE CHILD SUPPORT WITHOUT A DIVORCE?

QUESTION: I do not want to divorce my husband but I want him to pay the right child support for our daughter.

MY RESPONSE: You could file a case for Legal Separation against your husband, and proceed to resolve all issues (including custody, child support, property division, allocation of debt, and attorney's fees) in that case, while staying legally married to your husband, but he could respond to your Legal Separation case by requesting a Dissolution of Marriage, resulting in a divorce.
