If your spouse is not paying spousal support under the terms of your divorce decree, you need to file a contempt action. Your ex will have to be served with the Petition. For the hearing, you will need to have an accounting of payments received. If you retain an attorney, the attorney can ask for a reimbursement of attorney fees which may be awarded.
