Deadbeat Parents
If your children are not receiving financial support from their non-custodial parent, then you, as their primary care giver, have the right to utilize any legal means necessary to get that parent to pay up. What you legally can not do, and should not do, in the best interest of your children, is to deny them the opportunity to have a relationship with the other parent. Understandably so, when a non-custodial parent refuses or has an inability to support their children, the parent who bares the responsibility solely may become frustrated, angry, and sometimes punitive towards the other responsible party. Use that anger to enforce your child support order, not to keep your children away from their other parent.

Collecting Child Support
View & Order!
|
Locating The Obligor: The first thing you want to do is gather as much information about the obligor that you can.
What the Courts Can Do For You: As you are working to get your child support, you will find that there are many people who will not be helpful to you.
Obligor Files for Bankruptcy: A person, or a company, can file for bankruptcy to either have all of his/her debts discharged (eliminated), or to have a "stay" from the collection procedures until the debts can be slowly paid off over time
Locating the Assets: If you have located the obligor the next step is to find his/ her assets so that you can take them and cash them in.
Effective Communication and Complaining: When all else fails and the child support enforcement agency is not doing their job to their fullest potential, you can always complain.
Frequently Asked Questions: Does child support have to be paid through the enforcement agency, or can my ex pay me directly? Do I need a lawyer to petition for child support?
State/Province Specific Child Support Information: The legal duties of support are based upon the needs of the child in conjunction with the abilities of the parents as dictated by income and assets owned.
Child & Spousal Support Articles: These articles have been written and provided by Divorce Source Professionals. Some of them may be rather long, so remember you can always print them and read the off-line another time.
