Resolving Disputes Over Non-Payment of Support
At the law firm of Richard A. Heller, P.A., our attorneys have been handling disputes over non-payment of child support and spousal support since 1990. We are available to serve as advocates for both payors and payees in Orlando and throughout Central Florida.
Whether issued as part of a divorce case or a paternity case, child support orders are court orders and are enforceable as such. Child support enforcement is an issue the courts take very seriously, because judges and other court officials want the needs of the children involved to be met as a first priority.
While the options offered in spousal support enforcement cases are somewhat more limited, since the well-being of a child is not on the line, there are options.
Have You Not Received Child or Spousal Support Payments?
You have the right to get the money you need, to raise your child or to support yourself. Can past due payments be obtained? Can you intercept a tax refund for child support? Can the payee be sent to jail until payments are made?
We will review all of the options available. You can be confident in our lawyers' ability to help you get the support that was awarded to you.
Have You Been Accused of Not Making Child or Spousal Support Payments?
Not making payments is a serious issue. Even if you are unemployed and unable to make payments, the issue needs to be resolved. You could go to jail. You could have liens placed against your real estate. In some cases, however, a mistake in calculation may have been made.
We will assist you in sorting out this dispute. We will help you going forward by setting up payments through the court so that payments are tracked accurately and no false claims can be made about failing to pay child or spousal support.
