Hello,

I'm sorry to hear about your situation. If your divorce was finalized last November and you still haven’t received your settlement, it’s important to take legal steps without further delay. In most cases, the court's judgment or settlement agreement outlines a clear timeline for payment. If the other party is not complying, you may file an execution petition in the relevant family court to enforce the settlement.
