Wage garnishments and collections
in Law ·
Not sure if I'm even in the right sub. Looking for info on child support and wage garnishment for an ex.
The issue is my son is an adult now and a full-time college student, but his dad is refusing to pay anything.
If he were still a minor, we could just go through Child Protective Services, but since he's grown, he’ll have to file the suit himself and go after the father's paycheck.
I have zero clue where to start or how this works—never had to deal with court or legal battles before. Back when we split up 11 years ago, the ex actually paid the amount the judge ordered during the divorce.
I'd rather just hire a lawyer to handle it, but I don't know who to call or what the standard rates look like.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
