This practical handbook explains the Child Support Agency's remit, powers and procedures so that clients can correctly assess a client's claim first time around. This edition provides coverage of the Child Support Act and the subsequent edicts emanating from the Agency, many of which have angered both clients and practitioners. The book takes into account: issues arising from the first child support decisions; issues emerging from the first appeals; any possible appeals at proof stage; and income support allowances and the subsequent wave of cases.
