Child Support Lawyer Scarborough: Enforcement & Support Claims Filed From Our Head Office
Scarborough is home to our head office, and a lot of our child support files here involve enforcing an order that’s already in place but not being paid. Legal Solutions Law Firm represents Scarborough clients on child support matters, with a free consultation and flat fees where the matter is straightforward.
Scarborough Child Support Representation
Accurate, Results-Focused Support Advocacy
An unpaid child support order doesn’t require starting over — the Family Responsibility Office can garnish wages, intercept tax refunds, and suspend a driver’s licence or passport to enforce an existing order, and we help Scarborough clients get that enforcement process moving.
Being based here means Scarborough clients can meet with their lawyer in person easily for a child support matter, not just by phone. Support and parenting matters for Scarborough residents are generally heard at the Ontario Court of Justice in North York, and we appear there regularly.

We gather full and current income documentation from both parents — the foundation of an accurate support calculation.
We calculate table support under the Federal Child Support Guidelines, plus any section 7 special expenses, based on actual income, not assumptions.
We negotiate firmly to reach a fair support arrangement wherever possible, whether as part of a separation agreement or standalone.
Where agreement isn’t possible, we bring or defend support applications and advocate forcefully on your behalf.

From My Experience: Scarborough Parents Underestimate How Much Income Determination Matters
Working out of our own Scarborough office, I see how often a child support matter is really an enforcement problem, not a calculation problem.
The table support formula looks simple on paper, but the real dispute is almost always in what counts as income — especially where a parent is self-employed, paid partly in bonuses, or has income that fluctuates year to year. Knowing the Toronto Family Courts well means we can advise you on what a judge would realistically order if your matter ever became contested, which helps us negotiate a fair outcome without needing to go to court at all.
