Question by Lisa&Mario: If you have a court order, no matter what kind and things are not going as “ordered” what do you do?

My friend is the parent/guardian/trustee of a child that is receiving a “structured settlement”, all was agreed to & ordered by the judge, well her lawyer isn’t doing things the way she’s asked and the amount of deposit at the bank is not what it is supposed to be, what can she do? I mean isn’t that why you hire a lawyer, to help you get what you want?? He works for her,right?? Is there a motion she has to file with the court??

She can go back to court to address some of the issues that aren’t being done right with the court order. The judge will probably wonder why the lawyer isn’t doing her job right at that time. Speak up with your issues, you have a right to be heard.
