Post-Decree Modifications

Post Decree and Child Support Modifications Lawyer

Many issues involved in family law are based on the circumstances as they exist at the time of a divorce. Decisions on child support and custody are based on what is in the best interests of the child. Sometimes, a change in condition can lead to a modification of existing agreements and court orders. At the law office of Rita J. Jencks, Attorney at Law, I help clients handle post decree modifications of custody, child support, or alimony.

A change in the conditions for either parent can trigger a modification. Relocation, a significant increase or decrease in income, a change in the family structure, or other changes may cause the courts to revisit the orders regarding support or custody. To alter such an order, the change must be substantial and it must affect the best interests of the child. Courts value stability in a child's life and are generally unwilling to make changes based on temporary or minor changes. To petition for a modification, you need a lawyer who understands the law and has handled these issues before.

My clients and their families are important to me. I work hard to make sure that every issue gets the attention and dedication that it deserves. One-on-one contact and personal service are important to providing excellent representation. I handle every matter personally and with the utmost discretion. I am always available to answer your questions and I keep my clients well informed of the progress of their cases to guarantee that we are working towards the same goals.
