Domestic Law- payment/ intercept of tax refunds

Now that all the holidays are over, you may be thinking of filing for divorce.  Many people use their tax refunds to pay for attorney fees.  I am able to take credit cards and I do work out payment plans.  Fees for cases that are settled might not be as expensive as you think.

If you or your spouse have any child support obligations your refund may be intercepted by the Family Support Center.  I suggest that you contact your accountant and discuss filing separate returns if the spouse without the obligation is not in agreement of using the refund to bring down the child support arrearage.  Many times if there is an intercept, the IRS sends notice to the taxpayer who does not have the support obligation and you can contest the intercept. 

If you are interested in filing for divorce, paternity or have a motion to modify please call Carrie Sue at 781-5905.
