Need advice

[nikphd]

I live in PA.
My ex and I are due to go to court for child support later this month for our 11 & 15 year old. I wanted to know what to expect when the day comes. I recently had a baby and havent worked in the past 6 months. How will the courts determine what I have to pay in support? And should I take a lawyer?

I take it you do not have custody? Cs will likely be based off what you are capable of making. Since you have other kids to support, being a SAHM really is not an option. Either you or your husband will have to pay your support obligation.
