Filing Motions for Contempt on Your Behalf
While courts make a variety of rulings that are legally binding with respect to divorce and family law, they often are disregarded. Fortunately, the courts have the right to enforce their legal rulings when one party fails to comply. If you have an ex-spouse that is refusing to follow court orders and make payments, our Maitland contempt & enforcement attorney at The Troum Law Firm, P.A. can file a Motion for Contempt on your behalf and work to help you obtain the support you are entitled to.
Are you looking to collect one of the following from an ex-spouse who is not following a court order?
- Child support payments
- Alimony payments
- Property from the marriage
Enforcement Measures Taken by the Court
Simply put, contempt occurs when an individual refuses to obey an order, mandate, or decree that is entered in by a judge. Often in family law cases, contentious issues are decided upon, and one party may have no desire to comply with the court’s final decision. When this occurs, a variety of civil and criminal actions can be taken against the individual to enforce compliance. For example, if you are not receiving the proper amount in child support payment, a judge may order monetary judgements, garnish wages, place liens on property, suspend licenses, and take other action that enforces compliance.
