Settlements and Support

Many times, it is the unexpected call that leads to a large child support collection.

An obligor can find himself or herself in a fender bender or a work related accident. This information can prove useful to the Child Support Enforcement Agency when a person who pays child support falls behind in making payments. Click here for related story* The legal staff of the CSEA needs to be informed of these incidents so that efforts can be made to either intervene in legal actions or contact can be made with the appropriate individuals in order to seek an assignment of benefits/proceeds. Please notify your caseworker if you learn that a person who pays child support is in a situation where a lump sum proceed may become available to him through a work related injury or other situation in which a law suit may be or has been filed. Information that a person may be an heir to an estate can also be relevant and lead to possible child support collections. A listing of caseworkers can be found on our website under the heading, "Contact Us," or you can call our general line at 513-732-7248, and ask to speak to your caseworker to share any information.
