Modifications to Divorce Orders

Do You Need a Bowling Green Family Lawyer?

When you go through a divorce, there are certain terms which are listed in the divorce order that you and your spouse must both agree on. This agreement is a legal document which stipulates what a couple must do after their divorce, including paying a certain amount of child support or spousal support, or the terms of child custody.

The court does understand that the conditions in your life can change suddenly or over time. There are a number of different circumstances which may allow you to modify your divorce order, such as the loss of a job, a major change in income, a serious change in a relationship, or an opportunity to move to another state and relocate for work or personal reasons.

Modification of a court order may be necessary for:

• Visitation rights
• Child custody
• Child support
• Spousal support
