Why You Should Hire an Attorney for Child Support in Arrears
It is important to have a lawyer who understands the specific difficulties associated with child support in arrears, because these cases are seen in the Superior Court of California, not the Family Law Court. Out of state fathers face the added difficulty of California's joint custody factor, which means the less time you have custody of your children, the more child support you pay.
Take Care of Your Arrearages Now
When facing child support arrearages, it is important to take care of them as soon as possible. As you fall further behind, the state of California will begin to take action against you. You may face a suspended license, which may inhibit your ability to earn a livable wage.

By contacting an experienced attorney today, you can take care of the current problems you face and avoid legal issues in the future.
