Enforcing a Court Order

 If you are divorced or legally separated, the judge will have issued a variety of court orders before your divorce or separation was finalized.  This might include a child support order, a child custody order, a visitation order, a spousal support order, etc.  These orders detail each party’s responsibilities under the order.  For example, a child support order will detail which parent is responsible for paying support to the other parent and how much the payments will be.  A child custody order will detail the physical and legal custody arrangement between the parents, as well as the visitation schedule if one parent is awarded sole physical custody.

When one of the parties fails to abide by his or her responsibilities listed in the court order, the other party can seek an enforcement of the order from the court.  If you need help seeking an enforcement of a court order, please do not hesitate to contact the Law Office Michael R. Young at your earliest convenience.  As an experienced Riverside family law attorney, I have helped countless clients throughout Riverside, San Bernardino, and the Inland Empire seek an enforcement, and can provide you with the guidance and legal representation you need to increase your chances of success. Many of my clients have found enforcements to be an invaluable tool. As you can imagine, when one party fails to pay child support or spousal support, or fails to follow the terms of the child custody arrangement, it can be very frustrating.  Many of my clients tell me they feel they stuck, like they have no options and there is nothing they can do to get the other party to comply with the order.  By requesting an enforcement, you can get the court involved to ensure the other party complies with their responsibilities listed in the order.
