Dedicated Assistance With Post Divorce Modifications
When a divorce or a separation agreement is finalized, not all of the results are set in stone. When circumstances in your life have changed, it makes sense that some terms of your settlement agreement and/or your judgment of divorce should change as well. At the law firm of Macht, Brenizer & Gingold, P.C., our Syracuse spousal support modification attorneys provide dedicated assistance with post divorce modifications concerning alimony/maintenance and child custody.
If a change in your life means that you need to change the terms of a separation agreement, we can help. Contact our family law lawyers online or call 315-849-2319 to schedule a meeting to discuss your situation.
Modifying Spousal Support
In order to seek a modification of spousal support payments it is necessary to show that there has been a substantial change in a person's circumstances, which may include:
- Loss of employment
- Remarriage of the spouse who was receiving payments
- Substantial change in circumstances which creates an undue financial hardship
Our divorce attorneys have extensive experience handling alimony/maintenance modifications. We will thoroughly review your circumstances and let you know whether you may be eligible to modify your separation agreement and/or judgment of divorce. We also handle child support modifications.
Modifying Child Custody and Visitation
Along with spousal support, it may also be possible to make a change regarding custody and visitation. This often occurs when one parent wishes to move a significant distance away from his or her current location. The court will always give great weight to what is in the child's best interests before deciding to change a custody order. The lawyers at Macht, Brenizer & Gingold, P.C., will work with not only your best interests in mind, but with your children's best interests as well.
