Providing for your children is an essential responsibility of each parent. Yet many parents bear the burden of financially supporting a child alone, when the other parent fails to pay court ordered child support.
These contentious issues must always be resolved through the proper legal channels. If a divorced parent loses his or her job, this does not absolve the parent from paying support, nor does it grant the parent receiving support permission to retaliate through withholding visitation rights. To schedule a confidential consultation with an experienced Orlando child support violation attorney, contact TK Law. We can promptly assist to help you get your child support back on track.

Florida courts aim to make decisions in the best interest of the children whenever a divorce or breakup occurs. If an agreement started legally and one parent is breaking that agreement, he or she is in contempt of court. This includes violating Florida child support orders. An attorney files a motion for contempt whenever court-ordered child support or time-sharing is violated by either parent.
Child Support Violation: If You are Not Paying Court-Ordered Child Support
Life happens to everyone. There may be a situation where you change jobs and are no longer able to pay the amount of child support you once were. Other times, you may believe the parent you are paying child support to is not using the money to benefit your child or children.
The only way to officially modify a child support agreement is through the court system. An Orlando attorney at TK Law will guide you in the process and file the necessary documents that a judge will consider to modify your payments.
It is critical you do not stop payments arbitrarily or make any agreements outside of court with the custodial parent. Such decisions can result in stiff penalties, including losing your driver’s license, facing wage and other income garnishments, and experiencing jail time.
If You are Not Receiving Court-Ordered Child Support
Do not put justice in your own hands. As our video explains, once a parenting plan is in place granting both parents some form of time sharing, it is never OK for one parent to be denied visitation because he or she is not paying or receiving child support.
A family law attorney at TK Law will evaluate the history of your child support case, investigate for any unreported income and seek to modify a parenting plan or time-sharing agreement for you. Our divorce attorney may also be able to file a motion for contempt before the paying parent faces consequences for not paying child support We can be reached right now for a free, no obligation consultation: 1-855-Kramer Now (1-855-572-6376).
