Nick K.

I submitted a case review and was quickly contacted back by Craig. At the time I was in panic mode had no direction no clue what to do and then I got the call. Craig was attentive understanding and compassionate to me. After speaking with him for a bit he had me calmed and feeling more confident. I wish I would have reached out sooner. 10/10 recommend. Thanks Craig. I'm glad there are people like you.

When parents of a child are not awarded custody in a divorce case, they almost always are ordered to pay child support until that child or those children reach the statutory age or advancement limit. Generally speaking, child support payments and enforcement are state law matters, and those who fail to remain current on these payments can face serious legal problems. However, there are certain situations where the federal government can get involved, and that effort took a big step forward recently.

The Office of the Inspector General, better known by many as the OIG, has recently launched a Web site designed to provide information regarding parents who are wanted for a failure to pay child support. The Web site provides an opportunity for people to provide information regarding the whereabouts of those wanted for this reason. According to reports, at least five parents have already been captured because of the information contained on this new Web site.

As stated above, child support enforcement is generally a state law matter, but the federal government can get involved when certain conditions are present. These conditions include when a parent fails to pay child support for more than one year or when parents owe at least $5,000 in past-due child support and the children live in a different state. This new Web site is expected to increase the ability of those involved to deal with this problem.
