Registration of Foreign Orders

At Fair Cadora, we know how difficult it can be to ensure that your previous spouse or significant other follows the orders provided by the court. Often, people believe that they can neglect their obligations by moving to another state or country or simply disregard a court order they had prior to moving to a new state, yet this is untrue. If your previous spouse is refusing to follow through with a court order, such as paying child support or spousal support, it’s time you contacted our firm. Our attorneys can file a registration of foreign order to work toward ensuring that your previous court order is recognized and enforced by the state of California.

If a court order is made in another country or state, it must be registered in California for it to be enforceable. Without the registration of a foreign order, state agencies, such as the California Department of Child Support Services, have no legal means to enforce the order.

Our firm can assist you in:

• Filing your registration of a foreign order
• Compiling evidence of previous court orders
• Researching foreign legal practices for your registration

One of the major hurdles to overcome is providing a detailed history of prior court proceedings, decisions, or agreements made outside of California, yet our lawyers are prepared to assist you in this challenge. Registration of foreign orders need to be handled in a timely fashion to ensure that your attorney can obtain the necessary documentation for your case. At Fair Cadora, after we sit down with you to discuss the specifics of your case, it is our aim to work to remedy your problem as quickly as possible. Our attorneys have the skills and tenacity you desire and are ready to fight on your behalf.
