Re: child support

The first step is to acknowledge the problem, which you have done. The second step is to start paying the child support and including something on the missed payments. If this is a California order, you missed payments accrue interest of 10% until paid. If a child support agency is collecting the support then you may want to contact them in order to make arrangements on the back pay. If you get no assistance from them, hire an attorney. Good Luck, Pat McCrary
