Contempt of Court in Tennessee
If a party fails to obey a court order in Tennessee, action must be taken to force the individual to comply with the order. In some cases, it may be necessary to file a contempt petition that aims to punish a noncompliant person for continuously ignoring a court order. If a party is held in contempt for violating a court order, punishment can include wage garnishments, seizure of property or assets, interception of tax refunds and lottery winnings, driver’s license suspension, and even jail time.
Common violations which can result in contempt proceedings include the following:
- Failure to make regularly schedule child support or alimony payments
- Failure to make your child available for scheduled visitation
- Failure to abide by the property division order
- Refuse to return your child to the custodial parent after scheduled visitation time
Modification of Court Orders
If you want to modify your divorce agreement, you must demonstrate that there has been “a substantial and material change in the circumstances” since the court entered the last order. The change can occur to you or the other party.
The following are common circumstances to modify a court order:
- Losing a job
- Getting remarried
- Having more children
- Retiring
- Being arrested or convicted

After meeting him in person I knew he was who I wanted to represent me in a child custody case and later in an adoption case. He responses quickly, effectively and in a timely manner whenever I had a question. He fought for me and each time won my case.- Ashley R.

First and foremost I want to start by saying how incredible Mr. Daniel Bryant has been for my family, especially my husband Caius. He has been my husband’s attorney for years and has helped him beat multiple cases even by getting them dismissed and expunged. We’re more than thankful for all the hard work he has done and would definitely recommend to anyone looking for an amazing attorney!!! Don’t wait any longer if you need someone great, Mr. Bryant will definitely get the job done!- Raven B.

Simply outstanding! Not only is my particular case extremely complex and emotionally taxing for both myself, AND everyone involved (including counsel), but Mr. Casey had literally HOURS to prepare for a crucial motion to be heard, as I hired him at 4 pm for a 9 am court date. This proved to be the best decision we could have ever made! His exemplary presentation of the truth, combined with his calm yet laser-focused attention to what was being presented from the other side was not only impressive but was also what resulted in me being able to spend very precious and valuable time with my daughter. While this case is not yet over, I am extremely confident that the truth will continue to prevail with Mr. Casey on our side arguing for it. Thank you, Mr. Casey!- Daniel M.

On my first time to deal with hiring a lawyer from overseas, I was scared and a little skeptical. Mr. Daniel Bryant was absolutely one of the best lawyers I had to deal with. Very professional, patient, clear on explaining things, quick on answering back beside the time difference, easy to work with, human and humble. I would highly reccomend him and definetely hire him again if needed, it is difficilt to find reliable lawyers.- Micol

My ex-wife got our Arkansas visitation changed from Arkansas to Tennessee. She was asking to reduce my visitation days and requesting an absurdly increased amount in child support. I contacted George Michael Casey for consultation. He was very professional, extremely knowledgeable of the law and his customer service is impeccable. Mr. Casey always returns calls and responds to emails promptly. His review of how the case would probably turn out was perfect. I actually got more visitation days and the increase in child support was minimal. If you do not utilize Mr. Casey's expert professional services then you are choosing the wrong attorney. Please choose wisely and call Mr. Casey today!!!- William C.

I was a nervous wreck simply considering divorce because of the horror stories I've heard. Kortney leveled the playing field, she was upfront and honest about the pros and cons but assured me she was interested in MY BEST INTEREST. Kortney's professionalism felt personal as if I were more than just a paying client. And because of that, I was able to relax through the process, Kortney Simmons is the best!- Former Client
