If a child support order already exists he must comply with it. In fact, your son should have gotten the support order modified when he received legal custody of his child. If there is a child support order, he needs to comply with it until the court enters an order modify it. Therefore, he should retain an attorney to modify the chld support order.

If he does not already have an attorney from his custody matter, he can contact me for further information.
