Title: Can You Enforce Child Support In Florida?

Can You Enforce
Child Support In Florida?

Enforce Child Support in Florida
It possible that your former spouse has forgotten
about your kids and keeps acting like nothing is
happening. Yet in the back of his mind, he knows
it is totally wrong. Failing to provide your
children with their basic needs, besides being
unfair, can have serious legal consequences.
Picture your former spouse behind bars because
thats exactly what may happen to him. But you
can talk peaceably and have an amicable child
support related discussion.

What To Do
The first and most crucial step is to contact a
local child support office. The Department of
Revenue may be able to enforce child support. A
case will be filed and a hearing will take place
in front of judges and officers, who may advise
the judge about the best approach in your
particular case.

Out Of State Cases
A child support order can be enforced, even when
a parent has moved out-of-state. There is federal
law called Uniform Interstate Family Support Act,
valid not only in Florida but in all 50 states.
So if a parent moved out without notifying a
former spouse, the new state is not allowed to
change the established child support order.

Registration Of Child Support Orders
Having the child support order registered in
Florida is enough. A support order cant be
registered in the new state without notifying the
other parent. If this happens to you, it is best
you hire an experienced Fort Lauderdale child
support attorney to handle your circumstances.
