Georgetown, TX Child Support Lawyer

A child support order is about more than a monthly check. In Georgetown, SMB Law, PC makes sure the order also handles the piece parents most often overlook: who covers the children’s medical and dental costs.

As the Williamson County seat, Georgetown is where these orders are entered — and we routinely see decrees that nail the base support number but leave health coverage vague, which causes fights later.

Where a Georgetown child support case is handled

Georgetown is the Williamson County seat, so a child support case is filed and heard at the Williamson County Justice Center on Martin Luther King Jr. Street, right in town.

Medical and dental support come on top of the base amount

In Texas, medical support and dental support are ordered in addition to guideline child support, not as part of it. The order must say who provides the children’s health and dental insurance and how the premium and uninsured costs are split. When one parent carries the insurance, its cost is factored into the net-resources calculation; when neither does, the court decides who must obtain it. Getting this spelled out precisely is what keeps a Georgetown order from unraveling the first time a child needs braces or an emergency-room visit.
