A: File a motion to modify child support IMMEDIATELY. You should have a lawyer do this for you. The court generally will not terminate your child support obligations retroactively any earlier than the date you file the motion. If the mother has any income or assets, you should ask the court to impose a suitable child support obligation on her as well.

A: Hire a lawyer. Have her sign off on the appropriate paperwork. Go to court.
