Florida Child Support Calculator for Broward County Cases

There is no separate Broward County child-support formula. This calculator uses the statewide Florida guideline table, then points you to local filing and court context for Broward County.

This estimate is based on the information you provided and general Florida guidelines. Actual court orders may differ. This is not legal advice.

Local court context

17th Judicial Circuit

Broward County does not have its own child-support formula. Cases use Florida's statewide guideline formula and are handled through the 17th Judicial Circuit and the Broward County Clerk of Courts.

How the Florida estimate works in Broward County

Florida uses a statewide income-shares model, so the core formula is the same in every county. The practical difference is what happens next: how the worksheet is filed, whether the case is contested, and how the local court handles hearings, mediation, and parenting-plan disputes.

Income

Use net monthly income after allowable deductions, not just gross pay.

Timesharing

Florida adjusts support when a parent has substantial overnights.

Add-ons

Childcare and children's health insurance can materially change the final number.
