The Question:

“My ex makes significantly more money than I do and keeps taking expensive vacations, but claims they ‘can’t afford’ child support. Is lifestyle evidence relevant, or does the court only look at tax returns?”

 In this episode of Love Court, divorce attorney Jessica Anderson addresses a listener’s frustration with an ex who claims they “can’t afford” child support—despite frequently taking lavish vacations and living a high-end lifestyle.
