If a court case was filed in the accident, you can look up information about the outcome with the court, either online or in person at the court's records room or clerk's office.
If there was no actual case filed, if your children's father will not voluntariy tell you, if have grounds to bring a legal action against him for child support, you can get this information, which is relevant to what he can pay, in that case, such as by a document production request to him or a subpoena to the other party or their insurer.
