Helping Enforce Court Orders
When an ex-partner refuses to comply with a divorce order regarding child custody or support payments, a judge may find that party in contempt of court. If a party is found to be in contempt, the judge may hand down penalties such as:
- Payment of attorney's fees
- Jail
- Make-up visitations
- Interest
You don't have to feel helpless when an ex is refusing to comply with a court order. We can provide you with the aggressive legal representation you need to ensure that your rights are protected and you receive the relief to which you are entitled.
Defending Against Contempt Hearings
In addition to seeking enforcement of court orders, we also defend those facing contempt proceedings. If you've been accused of failing to pay court-ordered alimony or child support, or violating a court order related to child custody, we can seek ways to minimize the negative consequences while negotiating a plan to get back on track. You don't have to face the court alone.
