Where does the ex-husband reside?

If he resides in Florida, we can have the Florida Court domesticate the Final Judgment entered in the other State.

Why isn't he paying the Court Ordered alimony? If he has the financial ability to pay, but simply refuses to do so, then there is a good chance the Court will Order him to reimburse your attorney fees and costs.

If you opt to proceed without the assistance of counsel, be aware that you will not be entitled to a �do over� if things go badly.

The above information is provided without any consideration/payment having been received, and without full knowledge of all of the facts.

An internet inquiry is no substitution for an in-office consultation with an attorney.

If your situation falls within the Greater Tampa Bay area, I would be happy to schedule you for a no obligation half hour office consultation. The main office is in Dunedin, with a satellite location in Tampa.

Feel free to Google me.

Good Luck, Elliot Goldstein
