Protecting your rights when agreements are broken.
When a former partner fails to abide by the terms of a family law agreement, it can create stress, financial strain, and legal uncertainty. Whether it’s a separation agreement, parenting plan, or support order, these agreements are legally binding—and there are steps you can take to enforce them.
We help clients protect their rights and ensure agreements and orders are respected. Our approach starts with practical solutions like negotiation or mediation, but we’re ready to take court action when necessary.
Common enforcement issues include:
- Missed child or spousal support payments
- Denied or disrupted parenting time
- Breaches of property division terms
- Disregarding restraining or protection orders
How we can help:
- Reviewing your agreement or order for enforceability
- Sending demand letters or legal notices
- Filing enforcement applications in court
- Working with enforcement agencies (such as FMEP for support)
- Pursuing remedies like garnishment, contempt orders, or recovery of legal costs
Our focus is on efficient, effective solutions, resolving matters quickly when possible, and firmly escalating when cooperation breaks down.
