Does anyone know of an attorney to tackle child support and the IRS.?
I have voluntarily paid child support for the entire time and even before ordered to do so. I have flown from Va. to AZ. in Oct. just after Sept. 11 and entered into an agreement with the state to pay above what was ordered by the original agreement. My tax refunds have been turned over to the child support even though I followed my agreement and paid everything asked. I have only been allowed visitation with all my kids once for a few hours due to my ex being bitter.
The last child will be 18 soon and now I want to be done with everything and I want all overpayments returned to me with interest.
I need a lawyer who will cross state lines and represent me against AZ and the IRS.
your input is Buy Cipro greatly appreciated in this matter.
Thanx,

You wouldn’t be getting any money from the IRS, the IRS is required to report refunds to FInancial Management Services who then sends the money to the State Division of Child Support Enforcement.
You have to take on your State and ex to get anything back that the court might deem that you are eliglble for
You’d need an AZ lawyer. The IRS just honored the state’s order to turn over your refund – the IRS didn’t keep it.
Good luck.
If you have unpaid arrearages, your tax refunds will be taken to satisfy the debt. There’s no attorney who can stop that for you. Being current on an agreement but still having arrearages won’t stop the capture of your refunds. The IRS only involvement is to hand over the refunds upon demand from FMS.
Visitation is a separate matter from support. Maybe an attorney CAN help you with that aspect.
First, you will need an AZ lawyer.
On the agreement you entered into, did it perhaps backdate the increase in child support…this would create an arrearage.
Also, another thing that might have happened is that the order is from Arizona, but the payments are coming from Virginia. Where do you send your payments? Are your wages garnished? It could be possible that the two states haven’t coordinated payments properly, so one state is showing you haven’t made any payments at all, when, in fact, you have.
I would file an extension on your return to give you at least until October to get this hopefully straightened out.
