Family Lawyers - I haven't received any child support payments. Can you help?
Date: February 22, 2011
Q. I haven’t received any child support payments from my ex-spouse and although the child support agency is saying they have made every possible effort to recover them I have lost faith in the system. Is there anything you can do?
A. Yes. The difficulty though is that you can either opt to remain in the system or you need to opt out of the system to seek private legal assistance. If you are unsuccessful where you opt out you cannot re-elect to re-enter the system and have the child support agency take on the matter once again to recover payment.
