Hudson Valley Custody Enforcement Lawyer
Long after divorce, some people remain saddled with the challenge of getting the other party to meet agreed-upon, court-ordered obligations. Despite your efforts to communicate rationally, you may have no success on your own and need an experienced lawyer's help.
Rather than continuing to let a bad situation get worse, such as when your children are not adequately provided for because of unpaid child support or any form of abuse, please contact us at Vasti & Vasti, P.C., in Pleasant Valley to discuss legal enforcement actions you can take.
Misinformation on child support and custody/visitation enforcement is widespread. The most common issue is non-payment of child support, and some people are aware of enforcement consequences including driver's license suspension and even jail time. However, it can be essential to recognize that many violations of your divorce agreement are just that, but not yet criminal in nature — and it can take patience and discipline to set things right and get results.
Compassionate, Practical Counsel in Your Best Interests
Attorney Tom Vasti will hear you out and develop an approach to solve your problem. We recognize that, while no one may want to go to court for enforcement of orders, it is sometimes the only way to ultimately win an outcome that works for you. We carefully diagnose each individual situation and determine:
- If a non-compliant spouse is already in contempt of court due to repeated failures to adhere to custody and visitation orders
- What actions are appropriate and most effective to move forward with child support enforcement or a modification of other court orders
- The fastest and most powerful means of attacking problems such as domestic violence, excessive alcohol or drug use, or other serious risks to your children
- Whether our experience indicates you should take immediate action or begin documenting violations and setting the case up for future success
