Description

This form is a sample letter in Word format covering the subject matter of the title of the form. Dear [Ex-Spouse's Name], I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing to discuss a matter that I believe requires urgent attention and careful consideration. As you may be aware, since our separation, I have been fulfilling my financial responsibilities diligently by contributing child support payments as per the court's orders. However, unforeseen circumstances have presented themselves recently, compelling me to request a reduction in the child support payments. Firstly, I would like to address the current economic situation prevailing in San Diego, California. As one of the most vibrant and diverse cities in the state, San Diego provides its residents with a high cost of living. Both rental prices and essential commodities have soared drastically over the past years, making it increasingly challenging for individuals to maintain a comfortable standard of living. This hike in expenses, combined with the rising inflation rates, has had a substantial impact on my financial stability. Furthermore, I have experienced a sudden increase in personal financial burdens due to unforeseen medical expenses. One of our children recently faced a health crisis, which necessitated extensive medical support and ongoing treatments. These unexpected costs have severely strained my financial resources, leaving me struggling to make ends meet. As a responsible parent, I prioritize our child's well-being above all else, but these unforeseen circumstances have left me with very limited financial capabilities. In addition, I would like to bring to your attention the change in my employment status. Unfortunately, I have faced unanticipated job insecurity and a subsequent reduction in income. Despite my relentless efforts to secure alternative employment, the current job market in San Diego has not been conducive to success. This sudden reduction in income has significantly affected my ability to meet the current child support payment obligations. With all these factors considered, I would like to request a reduction in the child support payments to reflect the prevailing financial challenges I am facing. I fully understand the importance of providing financial support for our child, and it remains my top priority. However, I believe it is crucial to ensure that the payments are equitable and considerate of the circumstances we are currently facing. I am open to discussing this matter further and exploring alternative arrangements that would be fair for both parties involved. I kindly request that we engage in mediation or seek legal assistance to arrive at a mutually agreeable solution. Our child's well-being is of utmost importance, and I believe working together to find a resolution will benefit us all in the long run. Please consider my request sincerely, taking into account the financial difficulties I am encountering due to the circumstances mentioned above. I genuinely hope we can find common ground and make the necessary adjustments to ensure our child's needs are met while also addressing the current economic challenges. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. I look forward to discussing this matter further and finding a solution that is in the best interest of our beloved child. Yours sincerely, [Your Name]
