My question involves a child custody case from the State of: Ohio
We were divorced seven years ago.
The original plan called for no child support. (Familiar story, I guess... spouse makes a lot more than me but I just wanted out, wasn't thinking about long term, I was young, no attorney, etc... please don't lecture me on what is done...)
The only thing I did get out of the deal was the right to live in the family house rent free. I am doing better financially (spouse still makes more than twice what I make) and looking to get out of the house because the other parent still owns it (yeah, I know I got a raw deal) and makes my life miserable living here. To get out and get another place, I need more money.
Kids are 8, 10 and 13.
We have a shared agreement, although the kids are with me more -- about 70% of the time?
I know that child support amounts can be re-evaluated every three years (http://ift.tt/2x2lpBK) but what if the original order called for no child support?
Do I need to file that request with the court?
Could the judge even order child support now?
I know I need to get an attorney, and I have a little money saved to do that, but I wanted an independent opinion from you guys first on whether a judge could order support now when no original support order was granted.

Modification of Support: Establishing Support when No Initial Support Was Awarded
