As the official child support enforcement agency for LaRue County, the LaRue County Attorney’s Office provides services for parents who wish to obtain or provide support for their children. The Child Support Division determines, on a case-by-case basis, which of the child support services listed below are appropriate:
-
- Locating a non-custodial parent.
-
- Enforcing child support orders.
-
- Enforcing medical support orders.
-
- Establishing child support and medical support.
-
- Establishing paternity for children born out of wedlock.

- Collecting delinquent child support and medical bills.
The child support office does not handle divorce, custody or visitation disputes.
Divorce, custody and visitation disputes must be handled through your private attorney.
The LaRue County Attorney’s Office, Child Support Division, through the Kentucky Cabinet for Families and Children, locates non-custodial parents and helps get financial and medical support from them for their children.
Either parent can request these actions. To provide these services the child support program works closely with federal, state and local agencies as well as employers.

Kentucky Child Support Enforcement has an interactive website where you can apply for child support services, estimate a child support obligation, make your child support payments, report address changes, upload court orders and other legal documents, verify payment history and past due child support amounts and request updates on ongoing child support actions.
In the event that the non-custodial parent does not pay child support as ordered, the Child Support Division can assist you with collection through legal processes.

Some of the remedies that the Child Support Division can use to enforce child support orders include:
-
- Court action resulting in jail time
-
- Interception of tax refund (state and federal)
-
- Passport denial

- Liens
-
- Driver’s, professional/occupational or wildlife (hunting/fishing) or CCDW license revocation/denial
