Charlotte Contempt of Court Attorneys

Skilled Legal Services for Family Law Matters

Family court orders can involve any issue related to family law. When these orders have been violated or ignored by one of the parties, the other party has a legal right to file for contempt of court against the offender. Being found to be in contempt of court can result in various penalties. These penalties are levied against the offender in order to force compliance and to act as a punishment and deterrent for further misconduct. Thus, contempt of court is a serious matter which requires the services of a skilled contempt of court attorney.

  • The payment of child support;
  • Child custody or visitation orders;
  • Any order involving marital property, such as an order to transfer property or refinance an asset;
  • A restraining order (a domestic violence protective order); or
  • Any other order issued by a family court.

Contempt of court motions may be categorized as civil or criminal. Penalties may vary according to the type of motion and the circumstances involved but, in general, penalties can include censure by the court, jail time, and/or fines.
