Non-Payment of Pensions

Defense in family abandonment crimes due to economic non-payment. Defense of accused and claim of unpaid amounts.

Non-payment of child or spousal support is a crime that generates a criminal record. If you cannot pay, we defend your innocence by proving lack of means. If you do not receive payment, we exercise the prosecution to force collection under criminal threat.

Defense Strategy

Proving that non-payment was not 'malicious' (voluntary) but forced by a precarious situation. We provide work history, bank statements, and aid denials to prove the objective impossibility of compliance.

FAQ

Do I go to jail for not paying support?

It is possible, although the penalty is usually a fine or short prison (3 months to 1 year). As it carries a criminal record, it is serious.

If I pay now, is the crime annulled?

Late payment can serve as a mitigating factor of damage repair, but it does not automatically eliminate the crime unless agreed.

What if I'm unemployed?

You must request a CIVIL MODIFICATION OF MEASURES immediately. If you stop paying without the judge authorizing it, you risk conviction, although it is our main line of defense (lack of economic capacity).
