Common questions about Family Law in Arizona

Answered by Arizona Attorney Search Network

How does Arizona handle domestic violence in family-law cases?

ARS § 25-403.03 requires the court to consider documented domestic violence in legal decision-making determinations, and prevents joint legal decision-making where there has been significant domestic violence. Orders of protection are governed by ARS § 13-3602 and can be filed in Superior, Justice, or Municipal Court; an attorney is not required for filing.

What does 'legal decision-making' mean in Arizona?

Since 2013, Arizona has used the term 'legal decision-making' in place of 'custody' under ARS § 25-401. It refers to the right and responsibility to make major decisions for a child - education, healthcare, religion - and is awarded as either joint or sole decision-making by the court based on the best interests of the child.

How is child support calculated in Arizona?

Arizona uses the Income Shares Model under ARS § 25-320 and the Arizona Child Support Guidelines. Both parents' gross incomes, parenting time percentages, healthcare costs, and childcare costs feed a worksheet that produces a presumptive amount. The court can deviate from the presumed amount on specific factual findings, and orders can be modified for a substantial and continuing change of circumstances.
