Sample Letter for Request for Reduction in Child Support Payments in Clark County, Nevada [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Judge's Name] Clark County Family Court [Address] [City, State, ZIP] Re: Request for Reduction in Child Support Payments Dear [Judge's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to respectfully request a reduction in my child support payments, as my financial circumstances have significantly changed since the original child support order was issued by this honorable court. I am the non-custodial parent of [child/children's names], as established in the court's previous order on [date]. With regard to the financial support I provide for my child/children, I have always prioritized their well-being and provided full compliance with the court's orders. However, due to unforeseen circumstances, I am currently experiencing severe financial hardship which is impeding my ability to meet my child support obligations. The following factors have contributed to this: 1. Loss of Employment: As of [date], I have been involuntarily terminated from my employment. Finding a new job has been challenging, and the economic downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has further limited employment opportunities in my field. 2. Reduction in Income: Even upon securing new employment, my income has significantly diminished compared to what it was at the time of the original child support order. This decrease in income has been substantial, affecting my overall financial stability. 3. Increased Financial Responsibilities: I recently incurred additional financial responsibilities, including unexpected medical expenses and delinquent debts, which have further strained my ability to maintain the current level of child support payments. I understand the importance of providing financial support for my child/children, and I am committed to fulfilling my obligations to the best of my abilities. However, my current financial situation prevents me from continuing to pay the previously established child support amount. In light of these circumstances, I kindly request your consideration for a reduction in child support payments. I believe that a modification to the existing child support order is justified, given the substantial changes in my financial circumstances outlined above. Enclosed with this letter, please find supporting documentation, including recent pay stubs, an affidavit of financial status, and any other relevant financial records, to provide a comprehensive overview of my financial situation. I respectfully request a prompt hearing regarding this matter, so that I may present additional evidence and provide any required information to support my case. I trust in the court's fair and impartial judgment to make a determination on this matter based on the merits of my situation. Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I eagerly await your response and the scheduling of a hearing to address my request. If you require any further information or documentation, please do not hesitate to contact me at [phone number] or [email address]. Sincerely, [Your Name]
