Bear in mind that if the absent parent has a new partner and children these used to be taken into account in the calculation.

sometimes the parent who does not have the child simply refuses to pay and therefore the CSA will have to get involved iMO

Ramrod, with no disrespect at all intended to the other posters on this thread, but remember that your friend needs to make sure he takes what they've said as their personal experience which will not neccessarily be relevent to him and his particular circumstances.

Family law is insanely complex and the case law in respect of rights/responsibilities of unmarried couples when they split is still evolving. Lawyers make big heaps of £ÃÆ ’‚£Ãà¢Ã¢â€šÂ¬Ã…¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚£ undoing the consequences of following the advice of 'armchair lawyers'

Make sure he understands difference between personal experience, information posted into the public domain by qualified lawyers, and legal advice itself before he does anything irreversible. !
