When Do Modifications Make Sense to Enact?
Typically, the court seeks to amend its original plan as infrequently as possible, especially when children are involved. Because of that, modifications are likely to be granted only if it can be proven that there has been a significant change in circumstances.
Courts may consider granting a modification if:
- You or the other parent is relocating
- Your general circumstances have shifted significantly since the standing court order was given
- You or the other parent has gotten a new job with a substantial change in income
- The proposed change is in the best interest of the children involved
- You or your ex-spouse are getting remarried or cohabitating with a new partner
Take Charge of Your Future
If you have experienced a change in circumstances, it is not unrealistic to expect your spousal or child support to also change to reflect that shift.
