THIS is why you hire family law lawyers - to address such issues. What to do depends on the underlying details. Generally, with a judgment you will need to hire a lawyer to enforce the judgment if you can. Problem there is always practical and financial issues vs. legal ones as it could cost you more in legal fees trying to enforce a judgement that might not be collectible. Your best bet is to hire a family law lawyer immediately and go from there as there may be other family court remedies like contempt.
