Final Judgment/Prior Order Modification in Divorce, Family Law, and Custody

Sometimes, it is necessary to ask a court to change an order in a divorce proceeding. The court may have already issued a final judgment, or it may be a preliminary order that needs modification. Whatever the circumstances, the request must be brought to the court thoughtfully. You must assert the correct legal grounds and take the right steps procedurally.

Types of Family Court Judgments and Orders That May Be Modified

Some types of family court orders that may be subject to modification are:

  • Child custody and parenting time schedules
  • Child support modification, including unique situations of a child in high school after 18 or an adult disabled child, changes in income or custody
  • Alimony based on a change in circumstances or qualifying event for termination
  • Deferred distribution of assets such as a marital home
  • Retirement benefits including pensions
  • A party hiding assets or other dishonesty during divorce proceedings

These are just some examples – your situation may be different.
