Legal Question in Family Law in Iowa
I have been divorced for 4 + years and my exwife is not complying with the decree regarding visitation and claiming the kids on tax returns. If I get a lawyer can she be held responsible for legal fees if she is the one in contempt? I live in Iowa and so does she.

Your attorney can file a motion for rule to show cause. You can ask that your attorney fees come out of her wallet but that rarely happens.
