Re: collecting money owed by ex husband
If you know how to file the motion, get a hearing, prepare an order and say the right things in front of the judge, you can do it yourself. This information is available in the law books in your local law library. I venture to say that it would probably take you anywhere from 15-60 hours to put this together. This would save you the price of a lawyer.
