Violation of a Child Custody or Visitation Order Lawyers
My Ex Does Not Follow the Court Ordered Child Custody or Visitation Schedule. What Can I Do?
If your child custody or visitation schedule is not being followed, you have numerous options on how to handle the situation.
- You can have an attorney send a strongly written letter notifying the other parent that they must obey the court order or face legal penalties. This will show them that you are prepared to take legal action if they continue to violate the court order. This method may also be beneficial because it involves a third party and gives you additional support.
- You can file a motion for contempt of court. Along with this motion, you can ask for attorney's fees and costs as a penalty for violating the order.
- You can call the police. Although you may attempt to solve this problem without enlisting the help of the police, you should call them if your ex is denying you of your legal rights to visitation or custody. See Denied Child Visitation
