What ChildFirst helps with

Ask what to do, in plain words

Start with what is actually happening: a lost job, a support order you can no longer pay, papers you were just served. ChildFirst shows the next calm step before anyone reaches for court.

Start for your kids

Who it is for

  • I lost my job and need to change child support
  • The other parent will not co-parent or agree
  • I was served with court papers
  • I need to change parenting time or visitation
  • I cannot afford an attorney
  • The e-filing system will not take my payment or let me file

What you get

  • What the law says, in plain language (written for Georgia)
  • What court typically does in a situation like yours (not a prediction about your case)
  • What an attorney would typically tell you
  • The agreement path if the other parent will co-parent
  • The form, if they refuse and you have to file
  • A list of what to bring with the packet

How it works

  1. 1Pick your situation. Choose the one that fits, or describe it in your own words.
  2. 2Read the plain answer. See the law, the typical court result, and the steps in the order they usually happen.
  3. 3Take the next step. Try to agree first. If that fails, it points you to the matching tool and form.

ChildFirst is not a law firm and does not give legal advice. You review everything and decide.
