What happens when a post-divorce commitment is not kept?
How does your ex-spouse enforce his or her right to collect unpaid child support?
But what happens when you cannot make those payments?
Perhaps you have lost your job.
The unexcused failure to adhere to a court-ordered commitment regarding child support can create a serious problem.
Your former spouse should not be expected to wait indefinitely to receive your child support payments. You could risk contempt of court and be sentenced to jail or loss of your driver’s license.
If you are having trouble making child support payments, contact an experienced Family Law attorney Amy M Montes before your payments go into default – an attorney who will help you resolve your obligations and help you develop a realistic plan for resuming your payments while paying down the balance of missed ones.
