THE GAME CHANGER PACKAGE

Our Signature Private Investigation service to uncover fraudulent behaviour affecting your child support assessment

$$ Quoted on Application

Introducing the Game Changer Service: A Revolutionary Approach to Fair and Just Child Support Assessments

The Game Changer Package is the ideal choice for parents who suspect that the other party is deliberately engaging in fraudulent behaviour to avoid paying the correct amount of child support.

We’ve partnered with Australia’s leading private investigation service to offer our Game Changer Package — a powerful solution designed to uncover hidden assets, reveal financial discrepancies, and challenge unjust child support assessments.

What’s Included in the Game Changer Package?

Our Game Changer Package is a service designed with an “experts partnering with experts” collaboration approach with our niche Child Support service, partnering with Australia's number one Private Investigation service to bring you this powerful tool that combines the expertise of licensed private investigators with cutting-edge research tools and investigative techniques and the knowledge and expertise of the Child Support system, processes and legislation that Child Support Consultants brings.

This service is specifically designed for parents who believe that fraudulent or misleading behaviour is distorting the child support process. If you suspect that financial information has been deliberately hidden or manipulated to reduce child support obligations, the Game Changer is here to Flip the Script!

Here's what you get with the Game Changer Package:

Surveillance (Hours determined per Client)
- Our licensed and experienced private investigators will conduct targeted surveillance, gathering vital information to identify any hidden assets, income discrepancies, or deliberate attempts to conceal financial resources. This surveillance may include video, photographic, and audio documentation where available.

Comprehensive Background Checks
- Our PI will conduct thorough background checks on the other party, uncovering employment details, business affiliations, and any assets or income sources that may have been concealed. These checks provide critical evidence that can be used to challenge child support calculations.

Asset and Financial Searches
- In addition to background checks, our PI will perform comprehensive searches to identify financial assets, property holdings, and other sources of income. This helps us build a complete picture of the financial status of the parent in question, ensuring that the child support assessment reflects their true capacity to pay.

Detailed Reports and Evidence
- Once the investigation is complete, we will provide you with a detailed report outlining all findings. This may include affidavits, evidence of hidden assets, employment records, and photographic or video evidence from surveillance. All of this information can be used in your case to provide strong, irrefutable proof of a parent’s true financial position to support your processes and applications with Child Support, The Tribunal or Court.

Change of Assessment application submission to Services Australia Child Support if required, including a comprehensive statement of facts, issues and contentions under the grounds of:
- Reason 8A: The child support assessment is unfair because of a parent’s income, property and financial resources - (CSA Act section 98C(2) and section 117(2)(c)(ia)) and
- Reason 8B: The child support assessment is affected by a parent’s reduced income and there are special circumstances to justify changing the assessment to take into account the parent’s earning capacity - (CSA Act section 98C(2) and section 117(2)(c)(ib)

How the Game Changer Works for You

The Game Changer service is designed to help you take control of your child support situation. If you believe the current assessment does not reflect the other parent’s true financial capacity or that there is deliberate deception in the reported income or assets, our investigative service can provide a valuable extension to your child support application, objection or appeal.

Let’s work together to level the playing field and ensure that the child support system works the way it was meant to — providing for your children.

Here’s what they say about working with us...

Thanks to Crystal I now have a correct and affordable assessment that is fair and reasonable. I don’t have a problem with supporting my children however simply could not afford what child support was asking me to pay. With Crystal’s advice and explanation of child support options, she assisted me with applying to have my post separation income applied to my assessment which resulted in my income used in the assessment being reduced by 30%. I can now afford to move forward with my life with enough income to be able to move into my own home and purchase furniture so my kids can come and stay with me. I have now appointed Crystal as my authorised representative to handle all my child support matters and have not looked back! Highly recommend Crystal to anyone who has a child support case, she was so helpful and genuinely cared.

Shane

Townsville, QLD

Crystal was amazing! She helped me understand my child support assessment and explained everything in so much detail that actually made sense. After so many conversations with so many different people at child support, being transferred between different departments and getting no-where, I finally spoke with Crystal and it was like a weight just lifted off my shoulders. After a discussion with Crystal, she gave me options that I never knew about and was never told before. Crystal put me in touch with the right department to escalate the issue I was having and as a result the care decision was overturned and my assessment is now correct, the account fixed and my family tax benefit increased. I now have enough money to buy my kids the things they need and both my child support assessment and family tax benefit assessment are right.
