What Action Can I Take if My Ex-Spouse Is Not Paying Child Support?

Following divorce, parents with custody of children and dependents often rely on regular child support payments from ex-spouses to pay for food, shelter, and other necessities. If the court rules that one parent owes monthly child support payments, it is important to follow through on the judgment or face the legal consequences.

If your ex-spouse has fallen behind on child support payments or refuses to follow the orders of the court, you may be able to take legal action against him or her.
