Custody and Support Modifications
Many people mistakenly believe after a divorce they will have no further need for a Missouri divorce attorney. However, even when a court has ordered child support or spousal support payments or custody and visitation matters are settled through a court order, there may be a reason to work with a family law attorney to change the terms of the original judgment.
When Are Modifications Necessary?
Court-ordered child support, custody, and spousal support arrangements are based on the circumstances at the time of the divorce. However, certain life changes may require adjustments, such as:
- Significant income changes – Loss of a job, a promotion, or a major financial shift may make current support payments unfair or unmanageable.
- Changes in expenses – Increased medical costs, educational expenses, or other financial burdens may require modifying existing court orders.
- Health or work schedule changes – A parent’s medical condition or a shift in work hours can impact their ability to comply with court-ordered custody or support terms.
- Parental ability to care for a child – If a parent’s circumstances change in a way that affects their ability to provide proper care, custody and visitation arrangements may need to be reconsidered.
