He's not letting me see my children because I'm behind on my child support. Can he do that?

Legally, no. He is subjecting himself to contempt of Court which may carry jail time and a $500.00 fine. Visitation and Child Support are two separate obligations. It doesn't matter if you owe $1,000.000.00 in back child support, the other party cannot withhold the children. Likewise, it doesn't matter if the other party never sees the children at all, (and that's fine with you), she still has to pay the child support.

In some instances, I can handle these types of cases for a nominal fee. It depends on the facts of the case.

What Rita's Clients Say

I have used Rita Boyd for two different cases and I have been pleased with the outcome in both. She has saved me more money than I can tell you. She has protected my rights when the Office of the Attorney General in the first case sought to trample upon them and railroad me.

I could not be happier! I originally thought I found Rita Body by accident. However, looking back ...it was meant to be!
