Do I need an attorney to modify a parenting agreement so I get child support?
I have a shared parenting agreement now where no 1 pays child support. However my ex has moved out of this city and I have my daughter most of the time.

In Minnesota, in my legal work experience in the area of family law, definitely it is to your benefit to have attorney assistance when modifying legal matters in a situation as you describe. Multiple concerns are raised in the situation you describe and I would discuss all with the client. I always consider people's finances in legal fee and all considerations and there are ways to minimize legal expense while offering you quality legal assistance and service. I recommend phoning several attorneys in choosing an attorney to assist you, because it is very important that you feel a sense of great trust with the attorney you choose.
