Enforcing Child Support

Enforcing child support involves ensuring that a non-custodial parent makes the required payments to support their child. If the parent fails to pay, various legal actions can be taken, such as garnishing wages, placing liens on property, or even legal penalties. The custodial parent can seek help from state child support agencies, which can track payments and pursue enforcement measures. The goal is to secure the financial support necessary for the child’s well-being, maintaining compliance with court orders and state laws related to child support.
