We know family law can feel overwhelming—and sometimes, just getting clear answers makes all the difference. Below you’ll find thoughtful responses to the questions we hear most often, designed to help you feel informed, prepared, and empowered as you move forward.
What should I know about spousal support enforcement in Mecklenburg County?
Spousal support (or alimony) is enforceable — and Mecklenburg County courts take violations seriously. If your ex isn't paying, you can file a Motion for Contempt to enforce the order. The court can then take actions like:
- Garnishing wages
- Placing liens on property
- Suspending driver’s or professional licenses
- Even jail time in extreme cases
Keeping clear records of missed payments and communication attempts can help support your enforcement case.
