Top Enforcements Law Firm in Frisco
When court orders aren’t followed—whether related to child support, medical expenses, visitation, or custody—enforcement actions may be necessary. At Hanshaw Kennedy Hafen, our family law attorneys have the knowledge and experience to help you navigate these situations with clarity, professionalism, and results-driven strategy.
If a parent fails to pay court-ordered child support or medical costs, Texas law allows for serious consequences. These may include wage garnishment, tax refund interception, property liens, license suspensions, and in some cases, contempt of court, which can lead to fines or even jail time. These tools are in place to help enforce obligations and ensure children receive the support they deserve.
Whether you’re seeking enforcement or defending against it, our attorneys are here to guide you through every step. We understand how emotionally and legally complex these matters can be—and we’re committed to helping you resolve them with fairness and focus on your child’s best interests.
The Partner You Can Trust
If your ex is not following the court’s orders—whether regarding support, custody, or visitation—it can be incredibly frustrating. However, it’s important that you do not take matters into your own hands. Even if the other party is in violation, failing to follow the orders yourself can result in serious legal consequences, including a contempt of court finding against you.
For example, you should not withhold visitation because your ex is behind on child support, and you should not stop paying support because you’ve been denied access to your child. Both parties are expected to follow the standing court orders, and choosing to violate them—regardless of the circumstances—can harm your case.
If you are unable to make child support payments or feel the other party is in violation of the order, it’s critical to speak with a qualified family law attorney. You may have legal remedies available, but it’s always best to explore your options before you fall behind or before enforcement action is filed against you.
At Hanshaw Kennedy Hafen, we’re here to help you navigate these challenges legally and effectively—so you can protect your rights without jeopardizing your case.
