Child maintenance - Complex case

1 reply

My dc is 9, ex has only ever paid a few hundred pounds when he was little, since then he has paid nothing due to having "no income"

Ex used to have a business which has now been dissolved. He is very very sneaky, will do everything he can to avoid paying maintenance.

He has never had contact with dc even once i might add.

He is not a bum, he owns property, i just do not know specific addresses to obtain deeds with his name on, he also hides money, i know he runs businesses with friends who are named in the business, again no mention of his name to avoid responsibility,

Is there anything i can do? Short of paying a private investigator which j cant really afford.

Does anyone know of any help out there for people like this?

The child maintenance service bases their calculations
on declared/taxed income so if you can get hold of his national insurance number then that will help. The rental income from property is relevant to the CMS. The value of the assets like property are a different matter and you will need the guidance of a solicitor for this one.
