Contempt Proceedings in Georgia

Are you having trouble collecting spousal support or child support payments from your ex-husband or wife? Is your ex refusing to comply with the terms of your divorce agreement? When an ex-spouse is willfully and intentionally ignoring or failing to comply with the terms of his or her divorce, legal action may be taken in the form of contempt proceedings in order to revert the situation.

An attorney at our firm can help you if your ex is refusing to pay support.
