There’s no doubt that being a parent comes with challenges. While many of these arise from the process of actually raising children, many are familiar with another type of frustrating challenge: dealing with a co-parent who does not carry their weight.
Conducting the type of investigative research necessary to get the help and support you need can be daunting. For example, you may need help tracking down a parent who owes child support assistance, or perhaps you’re having trouble figuring out how to collect support from a deadbeat parent. At G.S. Peoples & Associates, LLC, our professionals can help you track down the information you need to collect the child support owed to you.
If you are considering seeking child support legal aid to help overcome the parenting-related legal issues you face, good. You have already made the first step towards overcoming the problem.
However, you may find that you simply cannot afford a child support lawyer. While seeking out lawyers that help with child custody and other child support assistance is a logical starting point, it is not your only option. Attorneys are expensive. Many child support attorneys require a retainer of $1,500 or more just to take a case. If you can’t afford that, the idea of giving up may tempt you. Don’t let it. You have other options.
Fortunately, many people can get the help they need without hiring an attorney. At G.S. Peoples & Associates, LLC, we offer a variety of services at the fraction of the cost of an attorney. How? We are paralegals and court certified mediators; we are legal professionals, but we are not a law firm. If the issue is beyond the scope of our expertise, we’ll connect you with the right attorney for the job. However, if you can resolve the matter without spending a four or five figure sum, why not give it a shot?
What we do for you at G.S. Peoples & Associates, LLC depends entirely on what you need. No two cases are the exact same, so we never take a one-size-fits-all approach to our legal assistance.
One of the main things we do for our clients is provide child support assistance by conducting investigative research on your behalf.
Many people don’t know where to find their child’s other parent. This can make it difficult to obtain a child support order or to enforce one that is in place. Whether your ex is hiding out or simply AWOL, we provide investigative services to help you track them down.
Some parents will do just about anything to avoid paying child support, including frequently changing jobs or even collecting their pay “under the table” so it can’t be garnished.
We can help you track down employment information for your child’s other parent, so you can take legal action to collect the child support they owe you.
Did you know that the Texas Attorney General can suspend a person’s driver’s license, professional license, or even hunting and fishing licenses if they don’t pay child support? They can also place liens on assets like bank accounts and insurance settlements. Our child support investigators can help you identify licenses and assets belonging to the other parent that the state may be able to use to get them to pay child support. If your ex is hiding assets that could be used to pay child support, we can help you find them.
Lawyers are expensive, but you shouldn’t have to be wealthy to get the child support you deserve. At G.S. Peoples & Associates, LLC, we believe that everyone should have equal access to the help they need. That’s our mission, and that’s our commitment. That’s why we do what we do.
If you need help collecting child support, don’t get ahead of yourself and sign an expensive retainer agreement. Instead, give us a call at G.S. Peoples & Associates, LLC, and let’s talk about how we can help you. We’ll listen to your story, hear your concerns, and lay out a plan of action.
Our company is built on a foundation of mutual trust and respect between us and our clients. If you think you still might have to hire a lawyer to help you through this process, don’t worry. If anything you need help with is beyond the scope of our expertise, we will let you know as soon as possible. We can even help connect you with the child support legal aid you need.
