Even after a divorce you may be faced with a change in circumstances that demand a modification to an original order. Modifications can be made to adjust custody and visitation, child support, and spousal support orders. At Tyack Blackmore & Liston Co., LPA, we offer experienced and strategic advocacy to protect the rights of our clients in family disputes involving post-decree modifications.
After a divorce, your lives will continue to change. You may find yourself relocating for a new job, your child may need additional care, or you may suffer an injury that leaves you unable to work. For such events, the court leaves open the possibility of a post-decree modification to reflect life's changes. While the primary issue is whether there is a significant change in circumstances, the courts will also assess the needs and best interests of the child.
As your attorneys, we will help you identify your goals, collect necessary documentation and present your needs to the court. When necessary, we will collaborate with experts and professionals who can attest to your needs and the best interests of your children. We are experienced in post-decree modifications involving:
Child custody, relocation and visitation modifications
The court will make a modification if a change in circumstance makes the original order obsolete or untenable. You may be in need of a custody modification if you are relocating, if the child's schedule and needs have changed, or if one party has a new job or living situation. Our attorneys will help you assess your current order and petition for a modification. If you are seeking to prevent a modification, we will present necessary evidence to demonstrate that the modification is not in the best interests of the child.
