Blancas v. Blancas (A-1321-10T1)
Mar 16, 2012OUTCOME: Due to the success of this appeal, the amount of our client’s child support payment was re-evaluated. Our firm did not represent the plaintiff at the trial level.
The trial court imputed $136,791.00 in annual income to the plaintiff, our client, due to his previous employment as an attorney in Mexico and his recent legal education in the United States. The Court ... chose this income based upon the testimony of defendant’s expert. I was able to demonstrate that the imputation of income was not equitable because it was comparable with the salary of an attorney in the New York City metropolitan area, and that our client had never practiced law in the United States, nor was he licensed to do so.
