Scottsdale office
Support conversations go better when both parents can see how the numbers were reached. At Aurit Mediation’s Scottsdale headquarters, you and your co-parent set child support together with a neutral attorney-mediator, privately and without a court hearing.
Your mediator walks both of you through Arizona’s guideline calculation, from incomes and health insurance to childcare, then helps you agree on how payments and shared expenses will work. Aurit then drafts the support agreement and worksheet and handles the filing.
5425 E Bell Rd, Suite 104 Scottsdale, AZ 85254 (480) 573-6706
For the statewide picture, our guide explains the guideline calculation and the costs it leaves out. These Scottsdale pages cover the decisions that connect to support:
The parenting time that feeds into the support numbers.
Confirming parentage so support can be set.
Support agreed alongside custody and property.
Maintenance between spouses, calculated under its own guidelines.
Assets and debts divided in the same agreement.
Arrangements when a relative becomes a child's caregiver.
An agreed support order for a Scottsdale family is filed with the Superior Court in Maricopa County, most often at the Northeast Regional Center in Phoenix or the Southeast Justice Center in Mesa, depending on the filing parent’s ZIP code. Cases opened by the state follow separate rules. Most families complete the process without a court appearance, and Aurit helps with each filing step.
Scottsdale parents work with mediators who explain every number and keep the focus on the child.
Founder and Mediator Michael has guided Aurit's approach since co-founding the center, and his roles in the field include President of the Academy of Professional Family Mediators from 2019 to 2021 and Ethics Chair of the Maricopa County Association of Family Mediators. Parents get a mediator who treats fairness to both sides as the starting point.
Founder and CEO Karen keeps support conversations centered on the child. As Aurit's co-founder and CEO, she built the center around a children-first mission, and she has taught mediation as an adjunct professor of law, passing that focus on to the next generation of mediators.
Lead Mediator Andrew walks parents through every line of the support worksheet until both agree on the inputs. The Arizona Mediator's Association recognized him as Arizona's Top Mediator for 2025, and his ASU law degree helps him put agreements into precise terms.
Money conversations are easier with a clear structure. Scottsdale parents rely on Aurit for:
Incomes, insurance, childcare, and parenting time are reviewed together before any figure becomes final.
Activities, tutoring, and medical bills the formula leaves out are assigned clearly, so they do not become a new dispute later.
Your personalized flat fee is quoted at the free consultation, and 0% interest payment plans are available.
Arizona’s Division of Child Support Services takes calls from Maricopa County at 602-252-4045. Mediation is a separate, private option for parents who want to agree on new or updated terms together.
No. Scottsdale parents use the same statewide Arizona Child Support Guidelines as every other community, and your mediator applies them to your family’s actual incomes, parenting time, and costs.
Yes. Support can be modified when there is a substantial and continuing change in circumstances, and you can return to mediation to work out the updated terms together.
Your child’s stability depends on a plan both parents can keep. In your free one-hour consultation, a mediator reviews your situation, shows how the guidelines apply, and gives you a personalized flat fee.
Call 480-573-6706 to get started; the office is open Monday to Friday, 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM. You can also book online.
