Contempt Lawyers in Clay County
Contempt of Court in Florida
Unfortunately, the need for a knowledgeable attorney doesn’t always end with a divorce decree or court order. When an ex-spouse or other party fails to follow through on an agreement or legally binding arrangement, call Haslett Law. We assist clients with cases involving contempt of a decree or court order in Green Cove Springs and beyond.
Contact Haslett Law at (904) 299-1188 for a consultation of contempt of court cases.
Violations of a Court Order
Following a divorce decree or paternity action, the other parent may not always fulfill his or her responsibilities or requirements of the court order.
Our contempt lawyers assist clients when an ex-spouse or the other parent fails to:
- Pay child support
- Pay spousal support
- Cover the cost of medical expenses
- Transfer property as required by the court
- Allow the other parent access to the child
- Cooperate with other terms of the divorce or paternity action
If you are dealing with an ex-spouse or co-parent who is refusing to hold up his or her end of the agreement, you need an experienced and knowledgeable attorney on your side.
Violating a Court Order Has Consequences
When the other party violates a court order, the law provides for several types of sanctions for contempt. A knowledgeable attorney can help ensure that your rights are protected and the other party follows through on all court-ordered obligations.
Whether or not we represented you in your divorce, we can help you in handling:
- Court order enforcements
- Child custody
- Modification of judgments
