Modification

It’s not unusual for ex-spouses to want to change a prior court order or judgment relating to issues of support or custody.  A party seeking to modify the order must show a substantial change of circumstances.  These circumstances may include dramatic changes in income, relocation to another state, or problems relating to the proper care of the minor children. The attorneys at the Massachusetts Family Law Group will ensure that, to the extent possible, our clients’ goals are achieved in light of the new circumstances, while preserving those rights provided for in prior orders. 

When you call us, we will help you analyze the costs and benefits of seeking a modification.  Our attorneys appreciate the economic and emotional value of reaching a negotiated settlement when it is appropriate. However, we are prepared to use our trial experience to pursue your case in court when there are not reasonable possibilities of settlement.

For a consultation regarding the possibility of filing or opposing a Complaint for Modification, contact Attorney Irwin Pollack’s Massachusetts Family Law Group today at (781) 461-9800.
