Okay
We all dread the days of going to the 3rd floor of the new haven superior court.
What is even worse is the 350.00 and hour bill from the attorney there after.
And all to collect what was supposed to be sent to us per court order anyway
the day we got divorced.
Well, I have found a great resource, Support Services.
If you are not getting paid the support each week, this service is
free to all CT residents and they track monies paid and not paid
They will hold your ex spouse in contempt after a certain time frame
they will go after anything support wise, daycare, medical, support, alimony
etec. and the service is free to us.
It is basically their program to collect from the "deadbeats" of the world.
Phone number to contact them: 203.974.8258.
The process requires you to get a most current copy of your divorce decree
from the clerk's office.
Then calculating what is owed and signing off that it is true
Setting up an appointment with the above number to open your case.
After a time frame if no monies are collected, your case is handed to
support "enforcement."
This department is the one that can hold in contempt,
pull delinquent payor into court and in the end actually
hand off the arrest warrant for the deadbeat if they have not
paid .
I wanted to pass this on to all out there , as I realize how
expensive attorney fee's can get. And sometimes we just don't have the money.
The stated will track monies paid, they will direct deposit into your account, they will
hold contempt charges, they can intercept Tax Return checks, they are a powerful
resource.
If you want any further info, call the number or email me at jules@dipnight.com
Have a great Day!
