When parents go through a divorce or legal separation in Arizona, child support orders are often a key part of the final judgment. But what happens when the cost of living goes up? Gas, groceries, rent, and child care are all more expensive than they were just a few years ago. If child support amounts stay the same over time, the paying parent may struggle to afford it—or the receiving parent may not be able to meet the child’s needs.

This is where inflation and cost of living adjustments (COLA) come into play. Arizona courts recognize that child support orders are not set in stone. As economic conditions shift, it may be necessary to modify support payments to ensure they remain fair and adequate.

In this audio, we’ll break down how Arizona law treats inflation and rising living costs in child support cases, when you can ask to modify child support, and how CHM Law can help guide you through a child support modification.
