Our job at Robert W. Hiatt, P.C. is to aggressively assert and protect your rights in divorce proceedings. Whether you need help in negotiating a settlement or litigation, contact us now at 718.979.8068.
The finalization of a divorce does not mean that all the issues and disputes cease to exist. Your rights and responsibilities to your spouse continue. At Robert W. Hiatt, P.C. in Staten Island, New York, we represent clients in post judgment matters that follow the formal end of a marriage.
Enforcing Child Support Agreements
Child support and spousal support are oft-revisited issues. When the paying spouse or parent fails to make timely payments, if at all, we provide the aggressive advocacy that benefited you in your initial divorce matter. Non-paying parents/ex-spouses need to be held accountable to the document they signed when their actions or inactions violate that divorce decree.
Modifying Child Support Agreements in Post Judgment Actions
Child and spousal support modifications may occur when one ex-spouse makes a major change in their life. They could decide to remarry or take a job out of state. Any change in circumstance justifies revisiting the original divorce decree and modifying financial payments to children or an ex-spouse.
Adhering to Property Division through Post Judgment Filings
At Robert W. Hiatt, P.C., we also return to court with our clients when significant assets or a family home is sold and the proceeds are not split according to the divorce decree. Both sides must comply with the agreement they signed. If they fail to do so, our job is to hold them accountable and aggressively assert the rights of our clients.
