When a marriage is dissolved, settlement agreements are ordered by a judge to cover such issues as property division, asset division, debt division, child custody, spousal support and child support. Sometimes one party has difficulty getting compliance to the agreement from the other party, and at times legal action is necessary to force the noncomplying party to adhere to their legal obligations.
If you experience difficulty getting your ex-spouse to adhere to a settlement agreement, you have legal options. Call the Law Office of James A. Jackson at 760-340-4545 to secure aggressive legal advocacy for your case.
How Can A California Attorney Benefit Your Case?
With the legal assistance of seasoned divorce counsel, the party not adhering to points of a settlement agreement can be held in contempt of civil court, and steps can be taken to ensure the settlement agreement is followed steadily and fairly. In some cases, if one party will not pay child support payments a judge can order that part of his or her paycheck is garnished to cover the payments. If it is a property transfer delay, the judge can order that the property be handed over immediately.
