Every child deserves consistent financial support — whether the parents are together or not. In Kenya, child support (commonly known as child maintenance) is governed by the Children Act, 2022, which mandates that both parents share responsibility for their child’s upkeep.
At Nkatha and Company Advocates, we help parents:
- Establish child support obligations through court orders or agreements
- Ensure fair calculation of support based on income, needs, and responsibilities
- Enforce non-payment through legal channels
- Modify support orders if financial situations change
- Handle child support matters in the context of divorce or custody disputes
Child support covers more than just food and shelter — it includes medical care, education, clothing, and other essentials for the child’s well-being. Where needed, we also assist with urgent applications for interim support pending the final outcome of the case.
Whether you’re a custodial parent seeking support or a non-custodial parent wanting to fulfill your legal obligations fairly, we provide guidance rooted in compassion and compliance with the law.
At Nkatha Advocates, our goal is simple: to protect the rights of children and promote cooperation between parents for the benefit of the next generation.
