How can I respond when child support is not paid?

Hello. This is the divorce specialist attorney at Daeryun Law Firm.

You are concerned about not receiving child support from your ex-husband.

When child support is not paid, methods such as payment order, performance order, and compulsory execution can be used.

Child support payment order can be requested from the court when child support is not paid 2 or more times.

Also, you can apply for a performance order. A performance order is when the family court orders the obligation to pay child support to be fulfilled, and if not followed, disadvantages such as fines and disclosure of the child support debtor's information are received.

If child support is not received even after using payment orders and performance orders, child support can be received through compulsory execution such as attachment and auction of the debtor's property.

As such, there are various methods to receive child support when it is not paid, but it is not easy for an individual to decide which method to use to receive child support.

Therefore, we recommend seeking the assistance of a divorce specialist attorney to receive overdue and future child support using methods appropriate to the situation.

The divorce specialist attorneys at Daeryun Law Firm will assist you in receiving overdue child support using appropriate methods for you based on related case handling experience.
