After
the dissolution (divorce) occurs, the circumstances
of the parties often change. When this occurs, it
may be necessary to seek a modification of a
marital agreement or standing court order relating
to family law issues. In most cases, a request for a
post judgment family law modification will be
met with resistance from the other party. In order
to provide the best opportunity to obtain a
successful change to an existing court order, you
should seek the legal advice and representation of
experienced legal counsel.
In order to modify the court’s order, you must
demonstrate a substantial change in circumstances.
Circumstances that may justify a modification
include a change of employment status, a 15% or
greater change in income of either party, the
relocation of either parent to another city, the
child is not doing well under the current time
sharing plan, or other relevant changes have
developed.

Post judgment marital and family law modification
requests may include, but are not limited to:
-
Child Support Modifications:
A parent may make a request to change the
existing court ordered amount of child support
owed when a substantial change in the financial
circumstances of either parent occurs.
Generally, a 15% or greater increase or decrease
in income of either parent will be considered a
substantial change of circumstances. However,
any modification must still be in the best
interest of the child or children;
-
Child Custody/ Visitation / Time Sharing Plan
Modifications:
A parent may make a request to change the
existing time sharing plan (i.e., the custody
and visitation order) if a substantial change in
circumstances occurs that warrants a
modification of the time sharing plan. Again,
the modification must be in the best interest of
the child or children;
-
Spousal Support (alimony) Modifications:
A spouse may make a request to change the
existing court ordered amount of spousal support
/ alimony owed if they can demonstrate a
substantial change in the circumstances
surrounding the spousal support / alimony.
