Modifying Divorce Orders
Schneiders & Schneiders:
Experienced Family Law Attorneys
Unless there are no children or any orders for alimony involved — there is no such thing as a final divorce decree.
Custody arrangements can be changed. Visitation schedules can be altered. Alimony can be decreased or discontinued. Child support can go up or down and may be changed either temporarily, or permanently.
Whatever your needs, we can help.
If you want to obtain, or prevent a post-decree modification — call or contact either of our southeastern Massachusetts law offices today for a free consultation.
At the Law Offices of Schneiders & Schneiders, our lawyers help people in the Boston and South Shore areas of Massachusetts to obtain post-judgment modifications to divorce orders involving child custody, visitation and support.
In general, post-judgment modifications can be obtained as often as needed, so long as there is valid reason for the request. Some of the more common grounds on which post-judgment modifications may be granted include:
- Major illness
- Job loss/unemployment
- Substantial change in income (either party, up or down)
- Children's needs have changed as they've grown older
- Re-marriage
- Relocation outside of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
- New job, new working hours
Our attorneys have had extensive experience and success in representing clients on both sides of this equation. In representing you, they can work to try and get your former spouse to agree to the change you're proposing or to accept your modified version of theirs.
When negotiation fails to produce a solution acceptable to both sides, we work to frame the facts and circumstances of your situation in the best possible light and to present a compelling case for your position to the court.
