We understand that circumstances change; an agreement that worked originally may not satisfy your needs or the needs of your children a few years down the road. This is not only true for child support, but also for visitation agreements and spousal support. There are a number of reasons for seeking a modification:
- Losing your job
- Change in job
- Having more children
- Health and disability reasons
- Relocation
- Change in needs or age of children
You Need a Court Order
Modifications are not always simple endeavors. To modify an original agreement, you need a court order stating why you want to change the current plan, and explaining what change in circumstances brought about this need. Any alterations to visitation, support or custody agreements must consider the needs of the child.
We can help you get the necessary court order. We can also use mediation to get through the process, lessening the hardships of a legal battle.
Whether you want to modify an existing child support agreement, visitation schedule or custody plan, and experienced lawyer can help you with the necessary steps. From her office in Fort Worth, Texas, Constance Langston has more than 20 years of experience handling modification cases. Contact us to learn more about post-decree modification and other family law issues. Telephone consultations are available and there is a fee associated with each consultation.
