How do you get petitioner to pay costs?

To ensure the petitioner pays costs, first, obtain a court order for costs after a successful outcome in the case. Then, serve the petitioner with the court's order, outlining the specific amount owed. If the petitioner fails to pay voluntarily, you may need to initiate enforcement actions, such as garnishing their wages or placing a lien on their property. Legal advice may be necessary to navigate these steps effectively.
