Latest Questions & Answers
Need a divorce agreement before filing for uncontested divorce?
My ex and I are splitting up and we agree on how to divide everything. We don’t have any kids. I don’t want to spend a lot on legal fees so I went to the courthouse in Clark County to file. The clerk told me I needed a written agreement stating what my ex and I have agreed on before I can file the uncontested divorce papers. I don’t know why we need this if we don’t dispute anything. What do I need to do to get the written agreement and what should be in it? Do my ex and I have to both sign it in front of a witness or a notary?
How can I collect back child support?
My kids’ mother hasn’t paid child support in months, and she owes about $4000 in back support. She’s promised to pay it but does nothing, and the back amount just gets larger. Is there anything I can do to force her to make the regular payments on time and to collect on the child support arrears that she owes? When I talked to an attorney awhile back he said we couldn’t garnish her wages because she’s self-employed. I’ve read online that I might be able to intercept any tax return she gets and put it toward the child support, but I’m not sure how to do that.
