Child support in Utah is calculated from each parent's income, and a parent who is able to work but isn't may be attributed income for that calculation.
The non-custodial parent typically pays support to the custodial parent. If your co-parent isn't paying what was ordered, we can help you enforce the order and seek remedies.
