I’m in a bit of a sticky situation. My dad has never paid a dime in child support. I’ve tried talking to him about it, but he just brushes me off. I’m starting to feel like I’m being taken advantage of. I’ve heard that I might be able to sue him for the money he owes. Does anyone know if this is true? I’m not sure where to start or what to do. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
It’s tough dealing with this kind of thing. From what I know, you might be able to take legal action to get the support you’re owed. It’s a good idea to chat with a lawyer who specializes in family law—they can give you the lowdown on your options.
Contact a family law attorney. Can you afford a lawyer? A first consultation is typically free, but suing your father will require time and experience and will not be a freebie.
