ENFORCING AGREEMENTS IN DELAWARE DIVORCE AND FAMILY LAW

You were able to resolve your Delaware Divorce, Delaware Custody Matter or your Delaware Support Matter before.

Now,  the ex will not live up to the agreement. Should you do nothing? No!

 Talk to me and see your options. If you have an Ancillary Stipulation in Delaware, you can typically file a Rule to Show Cause in Delaware Family Court in Wilmington Delaware. Typically, the case goes back to the Judge that was originally assigned the case. The remedies  that you request can include attorneys fees and costs in enforcement. The first thing you should do in enforcing an agreement is go to a lawyer so they can determine the possibility of modification You should consider the sort of provision and the possible modification. If the portion of the Ancillary Stipulation you entered in the Delaware Family Courts in New Castle County in Wilmington Delaware concerns property or debts, you should understand typically such provisions are not modifiable by the Courts. If the portion concerns Alimony,  the standard for modification  depends on the language within the agreement. If there is no language in the agreement that concerns modification of Delaware Alimony then typically it is difficult to modify unless the alimony continues beyond cohabitation or marriage  If the order in the provision concerns  child custody, child visitation  or child support, the first question is it there a separate order that only concern custody and or support. Secondly, as these are not worthless even if modifiable and are typically in effect until modified and the remedies can include attorney’s fees and costs. Typically, the other side says try and get anything, you can’t . I am excellent at finding a remedy. For example, you can do a QDRO for child support. But do it right so you are not taxed on what you receive. 

The point is call. Find out about your remedies!
