Current Salary to Increase Child Support
My ex-husband has been paying $200/mo child support for 13 years. I am interested in taking him back to court to have this increased. Is there a way to find out what his current salary is? I know where he is working in St. Louis, but since he has changed jobs, I no longer know what he is making. In his previous job in Denver, he was making over 80,000 per year. Is there any way to find out what he is earning before I spend the money on lawyer fees and end up losing because I did not know his current salary going into the legal action?
