What do i need to start filing for Oregon Child Support? Is there a way to just file without court?
The father is refusing to pay child support for his son. I heard there was a way to file with just knowing his address and where he works and i can get child support automatically sent to me from his check.
You can only get wages garnished from a judicial order, that means you have to go to court.
You could try Legal Aid. They might be able to help you at no cost. You do need a court order to get the father’s check garnished. Talk to a lawyer.
I would start with Oregon Department of Justice – Division of Child Support … Their website has a lot of information and resources to help.
