username43 said:What about one of the child support collection agencies? I don't know anyone who has used one or if using one cancels out the CSE agency,but look in to this. do the google search on this too. I'm pretty sure they collect a fee from the settlement,but this might be a way. Another thought is to hire an attorney to write a letter to the ex requesting full payment of arrears.this might get some kind of response and be less than a full retention of one. Again I really don't know about this either I am just brain storming. As far as rejecting the $20000,well the arrears really isn't open for negotiation. It is money borrowed with interest or stolen from WHWT kids through the years and should be repaid with interest.PERIOD If he could have settled with 20000 which is alot of money , I would have suspected he could have paid the $30000 as well. Good grief he could get a loan and pay the bank instead of cse and the mother. I think he is holding out too!
Collection agencies?? Then the OP might only get $15,000 and heaven knows she wouldn't be happy with that. SHE WANTS HER MONEY!!!!
