What Is Child Support Enforcement?
Child support enforcement refers to the legal process of compelling a non-paying parent to comply with a court-ordered child support obligation. When a parent fails to pay child support, they are in contempt of court and subject to serious legal consequences. Texas courts take child support enforcement very seriously, and there are powerful tools available to collect unpaid support. Laine Law Firm knows how to use every available enforcement mechanism to get results for our El Paso clients.
How Child Support Enforcement Works in Texas
Texas law provides multiple enforcement tools. We can file a Motion for Enforcement asking the court to hold the non-paying parent in contempt. If found in contempt, the parent can face fines, community service, or jail time. We can also obtain wage withholding orders that automatically deduct child support from the parent's paycheck. Other enforcement tools include intercepting tax refunds, suspending driver's and professional licenses, and placing liens on property. Our El Paso attorneys will pursue every available remedy to collect what your children are owed.
