Modifications and Enforcement of Existing

Orders

If  

a  

substantial  

change  

in  

circumstances  

exists,  

the  

firm  

is  

able  

to  

assist

clients  

in  

petitioning  

the  

court  

to  

obtain  

a  

modification  

or  

enforce  

an

existing  

order.  

Courts  

will  

agree  

to  

modify  

an  

existing  

order  

pertaining

to   

issues   

such   

as   

child   

custody   

and   

parenting   

time   

if   

there   

is   

a

substantial  

change  

in  

circumstances  

and  

the  

decision  

is  

in  

the  

best

interest  

of  

the  

child.  

If  

parenting  

time  

or  

custody  

arrangements  

turn

out  

to  

be  

counterproductive  

or  

impractical,  

clients  

may  

benefit  

from  

a

modification    

of    

an    

existing    

order.    

Moreover,    

conditions    

which

adversely  

impact  

the  

child’s  

relationship  

with  

the  

other  

parent  

can  

be

alleviated  

through  

modification.  

The  

firm  

can  

also  

help  

clients  

pursue

modifications   

to   

adjust   

child   

or   

spousal   

support   

amounts   

upon   

a

showing  

of  

a  

change  

in  

circumstances,  

such  

as  

when  

one  

of  

the  

parties

has  

experienced  

a  

major  

change  

in  

income  

or  

a  

job  

loss  

through  

no

fault  

of  

their  

own.  

The  

firm  

can  

also  

help  

clients  

who  

are  

challenging

requests for modification or enforcement.
