Answer 1

You n eed to petitin the courts for the remodification hearing and just tell the Judge what you told us. You dont really need an attorney here as the attorney will only say what you told us. You can do that much, as the Judge will decide what to do next. You may have some explaining to do due to the past agreement but you may have to swallow some pride and admit you made a mistake but need help now as not to make another mistake. Once ordeed,your local child support collection agency will help you get your money the legal way. Also you can contact your locallegalaid association for free help if you qualify and feel you need an attorney. Good luck and Happy Holidays

Answer 2

The VA won't garnish benefits without written request from the beneficiary. Good luck.

Answer 3

Try going through Children and Family Services, or whatever the agency is called in Maryland. Since he is getting a state check, they may be able to garnish it for you.

Answer 4

I was in your situation with my ex years ago.

After praying about it for a year I let it all go and forgave him and forgave him of all he owed.

Peace came in to my heart and to our home.
My child and I went on to live a very productive happy life and the frustration left me.

I know this is not the answer to what you are asking but just an option that maybe you had not thought of.

For me ~ it was about having peace of mind and getting rid of people and things that brought hurt.
