A judge can order as little as zero. Realistically, depending on county and judge, $50 to $100 a month is about the lowest that is likely to happen. Since your disability is to be determined, that complicates the math, as a judge will likely be guessing as to whether and if you will return to work or get an award. Bear in mind that you may or may not get a reduction in support, and that your "odds" improve with a lawyer and are usually low with no lawyer.
