Q. My kids are 37 and 31 yrs old. My question is, is it at all possible to have my child support terminated?

If you did not make the child support payments timely when the children were minors, you will still owe the back child support, including the court-ordered interest. The back child support is still due and owing even once the children are adults.

For example, an uncontested guardianship will generally be offered for a lower retainer than one that is expected to be challenged. If the protected person has assets, it is possible for the Court to order that the guardian be awarded to be reimbursed for out-of-pocket costs and attorney fees from the protected person's assets if the Court finds the guardianship appropriate. ...
