Los Angeles Divorce Modification Lawyers
While rulings at the time of divorce may have accommodated everyone’s needs, sometimes circumstances change. People re-marry, move away, take on different jobs and change their lifestyles. Because parents’ lives are interwoven with their children’s, these changes often affect child custody, visitation and even child support. In order to continue meeting the children’s best interests, it is frequently necessary to modify previous rulings or decrees. These divorce modifications in Los Angeles are referred to as post-decree divorce modifications. Child support may need to be increased or lessened, and unwarranted deviations from support guideline amounts may need to be rectified. At times visitation schedules must to be changed to adjust for moves. Grandparents may seek visitation rights. Whatever the situation, our attorneys tailor modifications to meet our client’s needs.
In addition to rulings involving child-related issues, spousal support is another area of the divorce settlement or decree that often requires modification. By design, spousal support is intended to assist a spouse until he or she is able to become self-supporting. Depending on the length of the marriage, eventually the court may rule that support is no longer necessary.
