Legal Question in Family Law in Iowa

I was given sole custody of my son and the judge ordered my son's father to pay my attorney's fees. My lawyer required that I pay the attorney's fees and when my son's father paid him, the money would be forwarded to me. I've paid the fees and my son's father is making no attempt to pay. Who will hold him to this? Or will it just get swept under the rug and I'm out thousands of dollars?
