Greetings. Yes, go and see an attorney as soon as possible, so that you don’t waive your rights by waiting to enforce them. Thank you.

Well, okay I’m 18 years old and my biological father hasn’t paid but about 3 full years of child support in my life. And I was just wondering if I could still take him to court over it, since there is a court order where he is suppose to pay so much for me and my twin brother. Everytime my mother would get the state to take it out of his check he would just change jobs all the time and it would get really old trying to search for him to find where he was employed at.
