Divorce Agreement Payment Reminder

Summary

In Texas, divorce agreements may not specify a legal time frame for bill payments unless stated in the decree. A reasonable time frame, like 30 days, can be set for payment. To remind an ex-spouse of their obligation to pay 50% of dental bills or report a new address, a formal letter can be sent. The letter should include details of the agreement and a deadline for compliance.
