Legal Question in Family Law in California
Child support
My ex husband owed me 17,000 in back child support. His work was giving him problems with the wage garnishment so I dropped the case against him. But, before I did that I had him sign a paper stating that he would pay me that money owed to me. He signed it, his parents signed it as witness' and i signed it. he wont pay me the money. So can I take him to court to get that money or is the signed paper worthless?

Before an attorney can give you an opinion, the document in question needs to be reviewed.

If in exchange for dropping the wage garnishment, he promised to pay you the money in a particular timely manner, you may have an enforceable contract. Otherwise, you may also apply for another wage garnishment. Call me directly at (619) 222-3504.
