Child Support Garnishment

Child support garnishment is a legal process where a portion of a parent’s paycheck is automatically withheld by their employer and sent directly to the child's custodial parent or a government agency. This ensures consistent financial support for the child's needs. The amount is determined by court or state guidelines, and garnishment continues until the child support debt is fully paid or modified. It is a method to enforce court orders when a parent is required to financially contribute to their child's upbringing.
