Riverside Modification Attorneys
Can I Modify My Family Court Order?
Orders regarding child custody, visitation and support can be modified multiple times until the child in question reaches the age of majority. Orders for spousal support may or may not be modifiable depending on the type of order made. Property division orders are typically not modifiable as they are usually part of the final judgment. If there is an error, coercion, or the other party is failing to follow the terms of the judgment it may be possible to revisit the property division in question.
Modifications to custody or support orders are often granted in circumstances such as:
- Job loss or promotion
- Severe illness
- Relocation
- One parent is incarcerated
- Death of a parent
- If a parent
- The child's needs have changed
