long story but in the end i need to know how to obtain pretty cheap real-legal advise (live in texas). my parents took my old credit cards and racked them up and didn’t pay and now i’m being hounded by creditors and my credit, which was perfect, is horrible now. parents are VERY poor already with 6 siblings still living with them and i don’t want anything bad to happen to the kids because of my parents’ stupid decisions. any ideas? i dont think suing would be the best idea because i’d never get the money since they don’t have any.

I work for a Law Enforcement Agency, and I find that throughout the years, a large majority of men and even some women don’t pay child support. Where I work we deal with welfare cases. All of them women are on welfare and are at a young age, and have at least two or more children. Many of these women have been to jail, cheat the system and lie about their household size, if they have a live in boyfriend, and do all sorts of welfare fraud.
On the other side we have young men that may be good men, they go to college, work, they may even have another family. What do we say when they refuse to pay because the mother of their child that is on welfare, uses the child support for own personal needs? We got A LOT of cases like that, where the woman uses the child support on illegal narcotics, uses for someone else, and never puts the money away for any college savings. why are woman punishing men for being fathers

I think child support is good in this country, but perhaps we go about it the wrong way. What do you think?
Do not be one sided. Look at it from a whole perspective. In the state of Texas, the minimum is 8 so, there is no .13 every month made payable to the mother of the child. If we have women only spending child support for THEMSELVES, then child support is not doing a good job of supporting the children. Let’s not forget this is 2007, there plenty of birth control out there for women. Yaz, Yazmin, Ortho Evra, The No Period Pill, Loestrin Fe, Depo, IUDs, and PLENTY more. Not to mention men should use a condom everytime. Its funny how we tell a man to keep his zipper closed but not tell the girl to keep her legs closed. If you are over the age of 18, why on earth would not be taking any form of birth control? And if you are unmarried, don’t assume that the man should take care of you and child, depend on yourself. We as women has choices if we want to abort, or adobt.

Currently in most states if you’re married then you’re automatically considered the father of a child born to your spouse. If you’re unaware of possible infidelity, you’re not thinking of getting a paternity test. You’re likely not to bring the issue up because you’re being misled. If you find out later, that you’re not the biological father, you’re still liable for child support because you didn’t question paternity within a specified time limit. The worst part is that Census numbers indicate that women lie in these cases 30% of the time. So, strikingly, there are a lot of men supporting children who aren’t their own. The other troubling part is that you can’t make this behavior a crime. It should be a felony to do this. If a man doesn’t pay child support,in most statutes he’s convicted of felony. However, if a woman commits paternity fraud, there is no legal recourse civilly nor criminally for the man. This is a serious inequality of the law; no equal protection.

How do you get the law to work on your side
In my friends divorce settlement she was to get certain things (like a ,ooo one time payment and Health coverage benefits which her husband simply doesn't pay, she hired 3 different lawyers who took the little money she has left, one said he couldn't take her case afterall sev months later shile sitting with all her papers and kept her money, the next sent her private matters to her ex's attorneys office for them to see. Meanwhile her financial accountant (who turns out to be a drug addict and dealer) has raped her bank account of 100,000 dollars, the bank acknowledged it as fraud and money laundering but isn't taking any action. Where does she go with this mess?!! She has no $ left for a lawyer, the police can't do anything, who actually does something in this country if there is grand larson, hwere does one go?

My ex never agreed in writing to help with college but he had said he would. Through the years I never pushed for all the child support I could get because I thought he would help with college. He paid her room deposit, took her to register and then the very next day said he couldn't pay that much and asked if she could go to a cheaper school. She found a cheaper school and then the night before graduation he backed out of all help. He paid his last child support in June and that has been it. He knows she takes monthly medication and he will not help with those expenses either. She has now chose a community college and is working to pay her rent, etc. The worst part is he sent his two step kids out of state to a private Christian college and paid for their cars, cell phones, laptops, etc. But his own he will not help with. Since it was understood all along that he was going to help and now he backed out, can I take him back to court for some type of fraud or something?
Even though she is working, according to all the government, I am responsible for her college until she is 24 or married. For that reason she is not able to file on her own next year with her income to get extra help.
Many of you have pointed out that 18 is an adult. However, my point in all of this is that he put his step children through an out of state private college and provided all they needed. I realize that at some point they have to be adults BUT the government will not let us do that. She is working, has her own place, etc. but the government will still not consider her on her own. I am angry because he stands up in church and professes to be a Christian, works in the church but he and wife are doing all they can to turn their backs on his first marriage. This is wrong. This is a man that would not even give his daughter 100 towards a security deposit for her apartment. He would not even help her get simple house-hold items to get started. She has done NOTHING to them. In fact, she has went over-board in being nice to all of them to get along. Even when she was excluded from trips to the beach each summer. If a child is college material, the parent should make an effort to help.
One more thing, this is also a man who got over 0,000 a few years back in a settlement plus he makes + a year and that does not include the income from his wife.
Yes, the government does make them adults at 18 BUT to apply for any loan, they have to start with the one from the government. It does not matter if they are even 21 years old, living on their own, working, etc. They have to include my income (if any) and my husband's income until they are 24 or married. Even though my husband is the stepfather we have to give them our income for them to use in determining any grants, etc., before they other things kick in. I think that it is awful that a man has to have a court order to do anything for his daughter. I know that is current wife is behind it and I think it is awful that he can not be man enough to stand up to her and say that she is his daughter and deserves his help the same as the stepkids. Yes, I tried to stay out of the courts because I thought this man was actually honest in what he said through the years but I was wrong. As for his stepkids, they have grown into rude adults – I should have taken him for every cent.
Sorry – forgot. Yes, I do live in the United States.

I purchased a house for investment and had already a lease for the property, I understand the interest rate was higher because of it.
my tenents stop paying and did not want to move out, I was unable to pay mortgage but asked the bank for extansion which they didn't approve. I tried to sell the house but no luck so it got foreclosed. A year later now I got a mortgage insurance invastigator asking me questions regarding my loan application, I found there is a lot of faulse info. that I didn't provide but unfortunatly didn't pay attantion signing it since my lawyer looked at it. they are basically blaming the broker and want to go after him but how is that gonne effect me? Can they go after me too?

Your Question
How is that they let her go with fraud?
Hello everybody, here are the facts:
R. is the husband and T. is the wife. He is military and in 2002 he got order to move to Italy and his wife decide to leave him and stay in the States to live with her mum and their child.
Everymonth R. would send her around 1500 dollars for the baby and that would happen trought a directed deposit stright from his paystub.In 2007 he gets back to USA and file for divorce. She report him to Child support agency saying he never paied her nothing. He goes to child support agency with all his paystubs since 2002 showing her account number and how much money he was putting there. Child support agency said they will get back to him. In the meantime during the divorce proccess he gets orders to deployed to Iraq. The divorce is granted while he is deployed and he gets to pay 710 dollars instead 490 because of the old missed payments (which never occured). Now he filed for his tax return and he gets an email saying that due missed child support the refund will be given to his ex wife that now is saying she knows he doens't have to do anything with it. R. is back to the States and wanna get to the end of this and get back what he deserve becuase he always paid his child support and he has evidence of it…where does he start? Thanks for the help
R. lives in Colorado and T. lives in Florida and the divorce was granted in Colorado.
He doesn't have money for a good lawyer…this is so frustrating and unfair.
Ok, on the divorrce decree they are considered saparated since 2002 even if action was not taken. but at this point she couldn't even declare he didn't pay child support because there were no orders since august and he always piad anyways
