According to the New York Daily News, actor Jon Cryer’s ex-wife is asking for $88,000 per month in child support payments.
Cryer, the star of the CBS show “Two and a Half Men” reportedly agreed to give ex-wife Sarah Trigger 50 percent custody of the former couple’s 13-year-old child in June. Trigger, a British actor, claims that Cryer makes $2 million per month, according to the Daily News.
The teen reportedly goes to the “prestigious Buckley School in Sherman Oaks along with the silver spoon-sucking scions of Hollywood’s wealthiest families.” In court documents, Trigger reportedly said that Buckley students go on “exotic vacations in the summer and winter (to destinations) like Europe and Thailand.”
“The child needs to be able to compete with his peers 100 percent of the time, and that means mom being able to afford to buy the things his peers receive,” Trigger’s lawyer told the Daily News. “I don’t think it’s really healthy for there to be such a disparity. This is really about the child’s best interest.”
Previously, Cryer was paying Trigger $8,000 per month in child support payments. In extremely high-income situations, judges have more discretion in ordering child support payments. In cases where a parent is a high-income earner, child support can end up being a sizeable payment, which may seem unfair on the surface, but completely understandable when a person’s substantial wages are taken into account.
It should be noted that if a person feels like his or her child support payments are too high, he or she can speak with our attorneys to see about child support modification and whether it may be a legal option.

KGG Law, and Barry Kantrowitz in particular, set the bar high for what a thorough, practical, strategic, compassionate and smart lawyer can be. Everything about Barry's advice and representation was exemplary and the stress mitigation that resulted was invaluable. On top of that, the ultimate result Barry achieved was beyond what was reasonable to expect and we are forever grateful. Often, people say that you hire a lawyer to prevent a problem. Sometimes, unfortunately, you need an attorney to solve a problem and I could not recommend Barry and his firm any more highly in that regard.Posted on Google

Kate Carballo is a dedicated, passionate, and creative attorney whom I had the pleasure to lecture with at a state trial lawyer's conference. Kate's lecture demonstrated how she uses her innovative and "out-of-the-box thinking" to achieve outstanding results for her injured clients. That Kate is certified by the Supreme Court of New Jersey as a civil trial attorney is a testament to her skills, experience and commitment to excellence.Posted on Google

Was referred to KGG law by a friend and could not have asked for better legal representation. They walked me through every step of the process after my accident and began every call with “ how are you feeling” which was just one example of how much they care about their clients. They handled my case very efficiently, professionally and courteously. My attorney Kate Carballo was a rock star! So clearly experienced, she consistently made me feel at ease with the process. Highly recommendPosted on Google

We had a great experience with the team at KGG Law. While it was a traumatic time for our family, they made it very easy for us and explained all of our options. They even performed due diligence to make sure that after our settlement, there would be no further issues which I think is even more important than the settlement itself. Thank you!
