Child Support Arrears
Child support arrearages refers to the accumulation of past child support payments that were not made. These arrears are looked at like any other form of debt and the parent who missed the payments is legally responsible for paying them back. Over time, these payments can become insurmountable. We understand, though, that child support arrearages are not like other forms of debt because of the stress the put between the child and parents. Oftentimes, the parent cannot see the child when payments are outstanding. For these reasons, and many others, our attorneys want to help you find relief.
