Two parents can agree that a child support payment needs to change and still find themselves bound by the original amount. A private agreement may settle what they want to pay or receive, but it does not replace the order a Texas court has already signed.
Uncontested.com offers online Child Custody & Support Services that include establishing or modifying existing support arrangements in Texas. For parents who have agreed on proposed changes, the service provides a way to consider legal document preparation and the steps involved in obtaining an updated order.
Why an Agreement Between Parents Is Not Enough
A child support order remains legally enforceable until it is formally modified. Even when both parents accept a different payment amount, the original obligation continues unless the court approves a change.
