Merriville Child Support Litigation

Child Support Litigation in Merrillville

Merrillville support laws can help you

When you request a court to decide who is responsible for child support payments and how much payments should be, you may want to consider enforcement options. Even though you may not have been awarded child support payments yet, you can ask the court to make sure that you are paid with a specific method when the order is finalized. It is unpleasant to consider that a child’s parent may default on the financial responsibility he or she owes, but it does happen. To discuss how to make sure your child support order is enforced, contact Robert A. Plantz. You deserve an expert in Indiana support law on your side.

Garnishment in child support litigation

One way to be sure that Merrillville child support litigation orders will be affected is by requesting a garnishment. Even before the payment order is finalized you can ask the court to protect you and your children against non-payment. Garnishment is a method of debt collection and it is very effective in removing any possibility that a parent will not pay support.

In order to determine if you deserve a garnishment order, your attorney must show that child support is due to you and that there is a chance that payments will not be made. Robert A. Plantz can thoroughly advocate for a wage garnishment in many cases of Merrillville child support litigation.

When garnishment is awarded, the court will order a certain amount of the debtor’s income to be with-held from his or her paycheck. That money is then turned over to you in a timely fashion to make sure your child is financially supported by both parents. This eliminates the option of not paying child support.

This, and other issues of child support litigation, is extremely complicated. Robert A. Plantz has the necessary training and court-room experience to guide you through a child support lawsuit in Merrillville. There is no reason to wait for the financial support you deserve.
