Practical guide

Keep these matters distinct.

The agency matter

Identify the notice, requested information, account or payment issue, and any scheduled hearing. Use official agency resources for your account.

The family-law matter

Tell counsel about divorce, paternity, parenting, or support proceedings already underway. Do not assume one proceeding addresses every issue.

Understand the issues

Make sense of the notice in front of you.

01

Read the notice as a whole

A letter about establishing support is different from an enforcement notice or a request for information. The issuing agency, requested action, and listed dates help identify the next question.

02

Look for related proceedings

Tell us about an existing divorce, paternity case, or support order. A complete picture helps counsel evaluate how the agency matter relates to the rest of the case.

03

Use official account information

The Florida Child Support Program provides official case and payment resources. Use the agency’s own website for account access; do not send account credentials to the firm.

Can I send you my online account password?

No. Keep credentials private. Ask the intake team for an approved way to provide the notice or other requested records.

What should I say when I first call?

Say that your inquiry concerns a Florida Department of Revenue child-support matter, identify any approaching date, and mention related court proceedings. Intake can then tell you what to have ready for the consultation.
