Changing Child Support We're In This Together

Changing Child Support in Texas

Let Our Austin Lawyers Help Modify Your Court Order

Once a court has issued a child support order, it governs unless a parent proves there has been a significant change in circumstance that directly impacts the children in question.

This is typically done through proving that the circumstances of the parent or child have materially and substantially changed, as well as that the requested modification is in the child’s best interest.

The Austin child support attorneys at Andrae Law have over three decades of experience helping families like yours.

Shape the future you want, and contact us today at (512) 668-7133.

Changes in Financial Support

There is another category of child support modification that doesn’t impact visitation or primary custody agreements but instead reevaluates child support payments. A judge can review the child support amount to ensure it is still in compliance with the Texas child support guidelines three years after the last order date.

This review can be requested by the receiving parent hoping to raise child support or the paying parent attempting to lower child support or the Attorney General’s Office.

  • "Amanda is the one to call!"

    I cannot recommend Amanda Andrae highly enough! From the very beginning, she demonstrated an incredible depth of experience in my child custody matters, guiding me through every step with professionalism and care. They truly took the time to understand my situation with my ex, offering thoughtful advice while always keeping my children’s best interests at heart.

    What stood out most was their balance of compassion and strength—providing the support I needed while being firm and strategic when it mattered most. Thanks to their dedication and expertise, I felt confident and well-represented throughout the entire process. If you’re looking for an attorney who genuinely cares but will also fight for you, Amanda is the one to call!

  • "Ethical, compassionate, dedicated attorney in an extremely complicated and difficult situation."
    Amanda Andrae is an ethical, compassionate, dedicated attorney who truly cares about what is important in family law, the best interest of the child. My situation was beyond complex and difficult with respect to the dyamics of all the involved parties, therapists, attorneys, witnesses, etc. Amanda did not falter in her ability to skillfully manage both the "people" side of things and the legal/ technical. She is honest and responsive, and truly went above and beyond to find ways to resolve an impossible situation. Amanda is also well respected by other attorneys, judges and therapists in Austin, which is important. In a situation where there were often no good answers, she did what she does best, which is think strategically, creatively, and always focus on what was best for my children and for me. If you want an ethical, compassionate, skilled family law attorney, I highly recommend Amanda Andrae.

  • "Excellent & Trustworthy divorce attorney"
    Amanda and her team impressed me from the very get-go. If you want an attorney who is responsive, who will work as much within your budget as possible, and will keep you clearly informed throughout your legal journey - I recommend Amanda fully and without reservation. In my case, it was a relatively agreeable divorce situation with children, multiple properties and businesses involved. And as my divorce attorney, I could not have asked for better representation and sound advice. As with any divorce, I had some times of pretty high emotion and Amanda was kind, non-judgmental and very understanding to the challenges I was facing. And along the way, Amanda and I shared some great laughs which made the tough situation of divorce a bit easier. Are there things that Amanda's office could probably do better? Sure. But that's true of any attorney or any business practice. What she does best is what matters most - and that is ensuring her clients are protected, advised, and represented professionally with the highest ethical standards.
