Q: I pay child support to my son's mother and she is ignoring all of my attempts to check on my son. What can I do?
The Child Support order states that the mother must keep me informed on the address of my son and how he is doing. She has ignored my attempts to contact for at least a month now.
A: Your best option is to hire an attorney. Otherwise you are going to have to figure out how to file a show cause motion and / or a motion to modify custody / visitation. These are often complex, so the odds of a non-attorney successfully doing that are similar to a non-mechanic being able to successfully rebuild a cars transmission - basically, less than slim and none.
