- Child SupportA: This depends on several things. Your income, the other party’s income, the number of children, the age of the children, other children not common to the parties, expenses for things such as health insurance and daycare, and the amount of visitation, or parenting time, you are going to exercise with the children are all important factors. The Arizona Legislature has included these factors in certain guidelines, with which you or your family law attorney will file a child support worksheet, and the judge will order an appropriate amount of child support based on the Arizona Child Support Guidelines.

- DUI/DWIA: A police officer who suspects you of driving under the influence may ask you to take some field sobriety tests. These are a series of “divided attention” tests that the officer uses to look for signs of impairment. It is my opinion that ordinarily it is not in your best interest to take these tests, and there is no penalty for respectfully declining to do so. You also don’t have to take the “breath test,” however; you need to be aware that the presumption is that when you got your driver’s license, you consented to the breath test. If you decline to take that test, you will lose your privilege to drive in Arizona for a year. And, if you go to trial, you may expect a jury instruction that the jury may presume, if you didn’t blow, that you were “over the limit.”
