Family law orders are meant to reflect your circumstances at a point in time — but circumstances change. Jobs change, children grow, people move, and situations evolve. When an existing custody, support, or divorce order no longer fits your reality, you have legal options.
We help clients modify orders that are outdated, unworkable, or no longer in the best interests of the children involved. Whether your income has significantly changed, you need to relocate, or a custody arrangement simply isn’t working, we’ll assess whether a modification is warranted and fight to get it done.
We also represent clients when orders are being ignored. If the other party isn’t paying court-ordered support, isn’t following a custody schedule, or is otherwise failing to comply with a court order, we have the tools to enforce it — including contempt proceedings when necessary.
This service may be right for you if any of the following apply.
Your income or the other parent’s income has significantly changed
Your custody arrangement is no longer working for you or your children
You or the other parent needs to relocate
Child support isn’t being paid or is being underpaid
The other party is not following a court-ordered custody schedule
Whether you need to update an order or make sure one is followed, we handle every step of the process.
When a material change in circumstances affects your child’s best interests, we help establish the legal grounds for modification and advocate for the updated arrangement.
Changes in income, employment, or your child’s needs can justify modifying a support order. We calculate the appropriate adjustment and handle all filings.
When orders aren’t being followed, we pursue enforcement through the appropriate legal channels — from demand letters to formal court proceedings.
If the other party has willfully violated a court order, we can file for contempt — which can result in fines, make-up time, or other court-ordered remedies.
Not sure if your situation qualifies for a modification? We review existing orders, assess your circumstances, and advise you honestly on your options.
When a parent is being denied their court-ordered visitation, we act quickly to protect that right and hold the other party accountable.
Modification and enforcement cases vary depending on the order involved. Here’s a general overview of how we approach them.
We review your existing order, understand what’s changed, and advise you honestly on whether modification or enforcement is the right path.
We gather the documentation and evidence needed to support your position — whether that’s financial records, communication history, or other relevant materials.
We file the appropriate motions and work to reach a resolution through negotiation where possible — or pursue court action when necessary.
Once resolved, we ensure all updated or enforced orders are properly documented, filed, and clearly understood by all parties.
Modification and enforcement matters often arise out of prior divorce or custody proceedings.
