Ex husband is not following PSA to pay for college. Filing motion to enforce litigant's rights. How difficult is this?

Question

In PSA (8/26/14) it was agreed to share college expense. I had suggested he go and speak with HS guidance counselors and discuss college options and he never did anything. He refused to pay for HS college classes in dual enrollment. He has failed to contribute to any expenses. I want the court to compel him to fulfill his financials obligation. He knew she was applying to over 10 schools and chose to not get involved in any research only insisted in county college. She is studying to be a Physical Therapist, 2 year program will not work for what she wants. She is enrolled full time and is now a sophomore at Drexel University. He said he would contribute and has done nothing. Do I need to go through oral argument or just send in documentation for the judge to decide?

You are not a trained attorney. You do not know the Court Rules, Rules of Evidence, case law, nor are you trained how to handle a legal case, especially if litigation is involved. However, if you do not retain counsel, and the opposing party does have counsel, you could get slaughtered (figuratively speaking). You are also emotionally involved. You need to retain an experienced matrimonial attorney who can effectively represent your interests in this matter. An enforcement motion is required.  Pick the best attorney you can find and remember one rule:  a good attorney is generally never cheap, and a cheap attorney is generally never good so don't choose based on price. With modern technology, you can be represented by any high-quality attorney in New Jersey irrespective of geography.
