Q: My sons dad is from Boston and lives there. I live in Oklahoma. How do I go about collecting child support?
A:
Several options. If there is in place a child support order in place, the fastest way is for you to consult an experienced Family Law Attorney, in your area, for help with this problem.
Another option, which only costs $25 is to visit you local DHS Child Support Enforcement office, and open a case. They are very good at this work, and have tools to locate employers and bank accounts. The downside is that they are overworked, and in many areas it can take several months to get started on this case. Good luck.
