I split from my ex h many years ago and we had a court order in place for contact and child maintenance. The contact was never stuck to and the maintenance never increased over the years. So 15 years on and I find myself in quite a different situation and I realise he is well underpaying maintenance for his son. How would you broach the conversation with him? WWYD in my situation?

I think it depends on your relationship with him , you could raise it with him. If he refuses go to cms

I’d call the CMS today. They don’t backdate.
