POST DIVORCE ACTIONS AND CHILD SUPPORT

If you are the party obligated to provide support payments or are on the receiving end, it is imperative to consult with an attorney if the terms of your child support agreement have not been or cannot be adhered to due to ever-evolving life changes.

There are many reasons why you should consult an experienced attorney when it comes to post divorce judgment enforcement or modification of an existing child support arrangement. Outlined here in more detail, as it pertains to the payer of child support, some examples of the necessity for legal counsel include, but are not limited to, the payer not following through with their obligations, the payer having a substantial increase in income, or a decrease by the payer in the amount of visitation with the supported children.
