Many thanks for the reply.

We do have joint legal custody. The procedures were simply eye tests for the 2 kids, plus the glasses and lenses for their glasses. 2 pairs for 1 kid and 1 pairs for the other. The insurance he has for the kids is not good and barely pays for anything. ($30 co pay for each kid included).
So basically the cost is 3 pairs of glasses plus eye tests.

Certified letter may do the trick. I will certainly do this as evidence that he has been informed of the costs, etc. He has been supplied with copies of the paid receipts already, but is ignoring them.

Hi,
My divorce agreement states that any extra medical costs not covered by insurance, should be split between myself and kids father. I normally pay co-pays and prescriptions without hassling my ex for small amounts. However there has been costs recently that amounts to over $500 that I have paid and want my ex to pay his 50% responsibility. He refuses to pay and says that he pays Child support and that he is not due anymore, even though I have made him aware of what the agreement states.
The question I have is, how do I go about making him pay for his half? Do I need to hire a lawyer or can I approach the court myself, which would obviously not cost as much. Someone also mentioned small claims court, is this a possibility?
Thanks for any advice.
