Ok how do I negotiate with a deadbeat parent to give me back child support or suffer legal action?

My deadbeat parent never offered any assistance and I'm considering taking legal action and it would be less expensive to just ask for money instead of lawyers and everything, how would I go about settling this out of court and negotiating with this dude?!Ok how do I negotiate with a deadbeat parent to give me back child support or suffer legal action?
Your parent?





You can't. The other parent can try children's services to see if there is a valid argument for payment of back supportOk how do I negotiate with a deadbeat parent to give me back child support or suffer legal action?
If you are under 18 you other parent must do it. If you are over 18 it is too late you can't collect back child support once you are an adult.
If he hasn't done it yet--he's not going to by a little talk of yours...


you will need to do legal action.

Simply ask for the child support, and if that doesn't work ... file the papers.
By listening to your question, and seeing your name, if I were him I'd tell you to stick your scepter up your a55.
First thing that has to be determined is if you can legally go after back child support. Never heard of this happening.





Then you need to know whether or not there is any money that can be collected. If there is then do get an attorney. If you are successful in collecting the court is probably going to make the deadbeat pay all court cost and attorney fees.





If the supporting parent doesn't have money, no matter what the court says then you are wasting your time. If they have hidden the money then you'll have to track it down, give that information to the attorney and then drag them into court.





Good Luck!
I don't think ';negotiate'; is the right word. Go to the legal clinic at the local law school and get them to help you (it's free).
If you are presently over 18 years of age, it is too late to take any action. Action should have been taken before you turned 18. If you are under 18 years of age, you can go to the district attorney's office in your county and tell them you want to report a dead beat parent who has failed to pay child support, if, indeed, child support was ordered by the court. They will investigate the matter and if they find that he should have been paying they will garnish any wages he earns and send the money to the appropriate recipient.
Since it was already (I assume) agreed to in court with no action, why would you think you can get it solved now without going to court. Child Support Bureau needs to be notified by your custodial parent since they are the one who got the original judgement.
WHO are you?





IS there a current support order?





In what state was the order issued?





WHEN was the current order issued?





HOW much is he/she in arrears?
Its very difficlut to get back child support, especially if the child in question is of age. I personally know that my deadbeat father stopped paying child support for a few years, with the consent of my mother, with the understanding that double payments would be made to catch up. The double payments happened for about 2 years and then nothing again. In the meantime, he helped raise two other kids that were not his, but were his girlfriends, and whose father was well-off and not a deadbeat. I went to a legal counsel with all of this because my mother got sick and could have used the money, but because it wasn't owed to me, there was nothing that could be done. Best thing to do is just let it go and move on. Deadbeat parents can really mess things up. Good luck with whatever happens.
You're confused. Child support doesn't go to a child, it goes to the parent. If your mother never had a child support case when you were younger, legally he doesn't owe her a cent. YOU can't raise an action for child support against your father.





You seem angry, but sometimes it makes more sense to figure out that what is in the past is in the past. You have no ability to change that, but you do have the ability in the present to work through your anger. It would be lots of wasted effort for the above for something that didnt happen. You're stuck on what he ';should'; have done, but reality doesn't match expectations. Try and put the same amount of effort into improving your life.





I've been angry too for some ';shoulds'; with my folks, so I'm not pulling this out of my behind.





Best of luck to you.
