Introduction to Collection

There are legal procedures to collect rearing expenses via forced execution under the Civil Execution Act and rearing cost security litigation under the Family Litigation Act as well as smooth agreement with obligors so that divorced and/or unmarried single parent, as a creditor, can receive rearing expenses smoothly.

If there is a request for support to collect unpaid rearing expenses from a parent who rears a minor to a parent who does not rear a minor, agreement will be induced. Otherwise, there will be litigation to secure implementation or forced execution so that a minor can grow up in a safe environment.
