Child Support Enforcement – Albuquerque, New Mexico
At Standridge Law Firm, P.C., we represent parents on either side of child support enforcement cases. Our child support lawyers represent those seeking child support that is past due, and also defending the rights of those accused of not paying child support.
Seeking Child Support Payments
It’s tough to be a single parent, and when the non-custodial spouse ceases to meet child support obligations, it can have serious financial consequences for you and your child. If you are not receiving payments, legal recourse is available. Contact us to discuss the options available to you in your case.
Child Support Enforcement – Defendants
If you find yourself unable to pay child support, do not stop doing so without speaking to a lawyer first. Non-payment of child support can mean serious consequences, including jail time. If you do not pay child support, you may be subject to the following penalties according to New Mexico state laws:
- Inclusion on New Mexico’s 25 most wanted for non-payment of child support posters
- Wage withholding
- Occupational or professional licenses revoked
- Driver’s license revoked
- State and federal tax refund intercepts
- Liens placed on assets
As with a criminal court case, it is unwise to represent yourself in a non-payment of child support case. Don’t let child support enforcement disputes come between you and your child. Contact our child support lawyers immediately for a free consultation. We might be able to work out child support modifications that work for all parties involved.
