Winning a lawsuit in Massachusetts is a major step, but it’s not always the final one. If the other party fails to comply with the judgment, you may need to file a contempt action to compel payment or performance.

Being accused of civil contempt in Massachusetts can feel overwhelming, especially if you didn’t mean to disobey a court order or thought you were doing your best to comply.
