Every California superior court has a Family Law Facilitator — a court-based resource that provides free assistance to self-represented parties in family law cases, including child support enforcement. Many custodial parents don’t know this resource exists.
What the Facilitator Can Help With
The Family Law Facilitator can: help you complete court forms, explain court procedures, review your documents before filing, help you understand court orders, and in some counties provide brief legal advice. They cannot represent you in court, but they can significantly improve the quality of your self-represented filings.
Use the facilitator before every court appearance. A custodial parent who meets with the Family Law Facilitator before a hearing to review their documents and understand the procedure arrives better prepared. The facilitator’s feedback on your forms can catch errors that would otherwise delay your case or weaken your arguments. This free resource is one of the most underutilized tools in child support enforcement.
The California Child Support Recovery System gives custodial parents the exact tools and templates to enforce support orders, calculate arrears, and use every enforcement mechanism available. Request your free evaluation here.
