I am often asked as a Albany Family Law Attorney by clients if a court can require someone to pay college expenses. A court is empowered to direct parents to contribute to the college expenses of the child. I like to advise clients as a Albany Family Law Attorney that court will consider the parent’s educational background, the child’s academic aptitude, as well as the financial circumstances of the parties.

If you are concerned about the court requiring you to pay college expenses, contact our experienced Albany Family Law Attorneys.
