Reasons for Modification
When things change in your life, family law attorney Jack Windt can help you show the court why those changes require a child support, child custody or alimony agreement to be modified. Some of the reasons that Florida courts may allow post-judgment modifications are:
- Employment changes: A new job may have different work hours or result in more or less income, or you may have lost your job.
- Parental relocation: When a custodial parent wants to move into or out of the area, child custody arrangements may need modification.
- Medical conditions: A child's medical needs can be a reason to modify a child support agreement.
- Cohabitation or remarriage: If a former spouse begins living with a new partner or gets remarried, alimony and other arrangements may need to be changed or discontinued.
- Domestic violence: Allegations of abuse are serious and often result in changes in child custody arrangements.
- Drugs or alcohol: If a parent abuses drugs or alcohol, custody agreements can be modified to protect the best interests of the child.
We are very experienced in mediation and we often find that these issues can be resolved through negotiation and then approved by a judge. However, attorney Jack Wm. Windt is a very experienced litigator and is always ready to protect your rights in court when necessary.
