Take legal action to compel financial disclosure and settlement from an uncooperative ex-spouse
When an ex-spouse deliberately delays financial settlement, several legal enforcement options are available to move the process forward. The court can intervene to ensure timely resolution and protect your interests.
- File a court motion to compel financial disclosure within a specific timeframe
- Request the appointment of a forensic accountant to investigate and document financial details
- Seek court-ordered deadlines with potential penalties for non-compliance
- Apply for a case management conference to establish a formal timeline
- Consider pursuing cost consequences against your ex-spouse for unnecessary delays
Working with a family law professional can help expedite this process and ensure all legal remedies are properly pursued. The court takes deliberate delays seriously and has various enforcement mechanisms to protect parties seeking fair and timely settlements.
