Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in California
Inheritance
My X-Husband is about to inherit money from his families estate, and I was wondering if I could go after him for back-child support since he did not pay support for 15 years. The children are now young adults. They are now 25 and 22 years old.
Thank you, Barbara

Re: Inheritance
If there is an order for child support on file only his failed to comply with a unit of the right to go back in force the order under certain circumstances. You need to immediately seek the aid of a family lawyer, one well versed in child support child custody issues. Please contact ballroom rule again and modify this question so the you're seeking the information from a family lost specialist. More importantly find one immediately. I suppose you where handled by an attorney in your dissolution of marriage years ago, contact him or her and they're not available call the local Bar Association and ask for a family lost specialist in their pool of attorneys who can help you. You won't want with at least five to seven years of experience minimally. You'll need copies of all year old papers or at least the original so that the attorney can check in your county based upon the action number of the dissolution of your marriage. Given the date of your divorce in any information he may need from those papers as it will make it much easier on him or her. Get a real live attorney immediately and I hope you plan on sharing these proceeds if you get them with your children who were the ones ultimately who would have benefited from them. A good source for paying off college loans if there are any.
