Understanding Enforcement in Family Law

Enforcement actions are crucial when one party fails to comply with court orders related to family law cases. This can involve financial obligations such as child support and alimony or adherence to custody and visitation schedules. Florida law provides several mechanisms to enforce these orders, and understanding these options is essential to protecting your rights and ensuring that your children's needs are met.


Key Enforcement Actions

  • Income Deduction Orders: Automatically deducting child support and alimony payments from a payer's wages.
  • Contempt of Court: Petitioning the court to recognize a violation, which can lead to fines or jail time for the non-compliant party.
  • Seizure of Assets: Utilizing court orders to seize assets to cover unpaid child support or alimony.
  • Modification of Orders: If circumstances have changed, we can petition the court to modify existing orders to ensure fairness and compliance.

Negotiating Compliance

Whenever possible, we seek to resolve enforcement issues outside of court. This may involve negotiating with the non-compliant party to reach a new agreement that is realistic and enforceable. Our goal is to achieve compliance with the least conflict and disruption to all parties involved.
