QUESTION
How to go to court against my father for not paying child support?
Asked on Mar 10th, 2013 on Child Support - California
More details to this question:
I live in CA, my dad in FL. I am 18 years old and my father had not payed any child support what so ever since I was 10. I would like to take legal matters regarding this. My mother does not want anything to do with this process. She is re married and I do live with her and my stepdad. So I would really like to get some opinions from someone with a familiar case or with experience. Some questions I have: -Would I hire a lawyer in the CA or in FL? I've heard that if I win the case, I can get him to pay for the whole cost. Is this true? Thank you

You have no right to sue your father for child support if it is a California order.
Your mother has that right- not you, and even if she has not persued it before, she could now.
