Enforcing Settlement Agreements

Representing Families Across Long Island

With more than 30 years of experience, each of our firm's clients receives the knowledgeable legal guidance they need, no matter what the family law issue involves. We offer a case evaluation to discuss the legal issue you are facing during or after your divorce settlement. If your ex-spouse has violated a term of an agreement, such as child custody or child support, our Long Island family law attorney can help ensure that it is legally enforced. We are well versed in the legal issues that pertain to divorce and can fight for your goals through each step of the case.

Long Island Divorce Lawyer Helps You at Every Stage

When it comes to the enforcement of your divorce settlement agreement, do not take this matter into your own hands. You will need professional legal assistance from our lawyer at the Rubenfeld Law Firm to legally force the opposing party to pay child support or meet another requirement of your settlement agreement. When you retain us, we can help you by filing a petition that holds your ex-spouse or the other party in the agreement in contempt of court. When a person is held in contempt of court, he or she must provide a reason for the violation.

Whatever your particular issue involves, you must take action in order to have the settlement agreement enforced. Do not assume that the situation will resolve itself. At the Rubenfeld Law Firm, we take great measures to ensure that your settlement agreement protects the rights of you and your children. With a motion to enforce a settlement agreement, you can receive the child support or spousal support that you need and deserve. If a visitation order has been violated by your ex, we can take action to protect your rights.
