Alimony and Child Support Enforcement
If your ex-spouse or former partner has stopped paying their court ordered alimony or child support, our Pensacola contempt attorneys may be able to seek their incarceration for their failure to make their court ordered payments. The Pensacola court has the authority to incarcerate a party to enforce its order if it is deemed necessary. Our attorneys will work diligently to review the facts of your case to determine the best court of remedy for you. We will make sure your rights are protected and your voice is heard.
Alimony and Child Support Enforcement Defense
Unfortunately, changes in circumstances since the order was originally issued leave individuals unable to make their court order alimony or child support payments. It is not a refusal to pay, but rather the simple inability to make such a payment. If you are an individual who no longer can make your court ordered alimony or child support payment, our team of Pensacola enforcement attorneys can assist you in raising valid defenses to your contempt action. In addition, your attorney will work to seek a modification of the court's prior order so the order may be modified to term and/or payments that you will be able to make.
