Aggressive Lawyers for Enforcing Orders or Defending Your Rights
What options do you have if your ex-spouse or the confirmed father of your child is failing to pay court-ordered child support? What if you invested time, energy and money into developing a satisfactory separation agreement — only to have the other party renege on his or her obligations to surrender property or pay certain debts? Are you being denied your visitation rights or the decision-making influence you are entitled to if you have shared legal custody?
We encourage you to call now and arrange a meeting with experienced attorney Lawrence F. Army Jr. to discuss and clarify the legal alternatives you may have. We will take the time to:
- Fully understand your personal and financial situation as it relates to your current problem
- Offer an assessment of your chances of success with a complaint for contempt, or by pursuing direct negotiations or some other path toward resolution
- Present a picture of what we may be able to accomplish and the likely costs of pursuing your various legal options
A complaint for contempt must be based on the violation of a valid court order or judgment. Common family law situations when a complaint for contempt is appropriate include:
- Non-payment of child support
- Lapse in spousal support payments
- Not being allowed visitation with your children
Personal Attention, Skill and Preparation Could Make the Difference for You
Complaints for contempt are more common than many people realize and their effectiveness can be heavily dependent on the diligence and case preparation skills of your lawyer. Our experience extends to:
- Working with proven, quality investigators to locate non-compliant ex-spouses or someone denying your parental or other legal rights
- Defending men and women against unjust complaints for contempt
- Filing complaints for contempt to enforce court orders
- Handling complaints for contempt based on nonpayment of medical insurance premiums, failure to reimburse the physical custodian for agreed-upon expenses, or other complaints
- Seeking maximum compensation for you — including payment of our attorney fees by the opposing party if he or she is found to be non-compliant
Fast Action Can Be Important in Modification and Enforcement Cases

Attorney Army will be pleased to advise you on what action you can take and whether the timing is right.
