Enforcement of a Child Support Order

Legal Action to Enforce a Support Order in Tampa

Child support is an issue often determined in family court as part of child custody and divorce proceedings concerning families with children. When child custody is determined and the primary residency of the child is established, a court-decided child support will usually be decided. Child support arrangements are made with several factors in mind such as the monthly income of each parent, number of children and the monthly financial requirements of those children. Once a conclusion has been made by the court, it is legally-binding and all parties involved are required to adhere to it.

All too often, however, parents find that these legal child support contracts are not being honored by the non-custodial parent. The parent with legal rights may make many attempts to collect that child support, but it can be very difficult without going through the appropriate legal channels. Unfortunately, legal channels can be difficult for any novice who is unfamiliar with the process, and many parents are unable to present their cases to the fullest extent. A Tampa child custody attorney can help to initiate child support order enforcement procedures for those parents who are not receiving the support payments, and can also be a trusted guide throughout the process.
