Enforcement of Divorce Orders

Making Certain That Divorce Orders are Followed

When a divorce is finalized, the orders that are issued must be followed. These are court orders and they are enforceable.

At the Law Offices of Richard D. Goff, our attorneys assist people with enforcement of child custody orders, child support orders and spousal maintenance orders. We know the law, and we know the options available to see that the Court's orders are followed.

We have more than 40 years of experience handling divorce and related matters, such as enforcement. Our clients trust our depth of knowledge. Contact us today.

Enforcement is a Challenging Matter

If child custody, child support or spousal maintenance orders are not being followed, the issue is immediate. Our first step is to resolve the matter in the most efficient way possible, by contacting the other party directly and trying to reach an agreement moving forward.

Unfortunately, that is not always possible short of court intervention. If all else fails, we will not hesitate to file a contempt motion seeking all available consequences for the violations, such as revocation of the non-compliant party's driver's or professional licenses or entry of judgment against them.

Enforcement of Child Support

Raising a child can be costly, and missed child support payments can cause significant problems. We act quickly in these cases to ensure compliance with the Court's order. In some cases, we may refer certain individuals to the Court's own low-cost child support collection agency, with its built-in powers of license suspension and judgment entry. Either way, we will do whatever is possible to make sure that our clients receive the support to which they are entitled.
