    Question Ex is Suing Over Child Support Arrears

    Hello,

    I have been served papers from ex wife for child support arrears ($3800 including interest) and order to appear and petition to modify parent-child relationship.

    My question is what shoud I be looking for in an attorney to hire?

    What kind of approach should I take? Should I counter sue something?

    What would you do in this situation?

    All the feedback is greatly accepted.

    You'll need to look for an attorney who specializes in family law. Ask frinds, family, etc for any referrals.

    Are you in arrears?
    If you are, what is the reason?

    What type of modification of parenting time, or custody is your ex asking for?

    what state?

    Do you pay court ordered child support? arrears?

    Do you know if you are actually in arrears?

    If you are in arrears do you know how much? or were she's getting that amount of 3800.00?

    What is the visitation schedule? how old is the child? what modifications does she want to make?

    You need a good family law attorney... (good luck n finding one) but, remember this is your case and it affects your likfe and your childs relationship with you so dont just hire an attorney and think alls well you need find out as much as you can to help yourself and your attorney
