Post-Judgment Modifications

Post-Divorce Modification

Life doesn’t end after divorce. As divorce lawyers, we’ve represented enough clients throughout Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and DC to truly understand what that means. On the surface, it means that even though it may feel like the end of the world, you’ll find that it isn’t.

More importantly, you’ll find that not only does life go on, but that your circumstances may have changed from the time of your divorce or separation—maybe a month or a year or five years from the time of the settlement or court order—such that you need to request or contest a post-judgment modification.

Enforcement of Divorce Decree

You may find that you’ve lost your job and can no longer afford the child support payments. Or you may have been promoted and are earning more, and your ex-spouse or partner is asking for more spousal support. Or the issue may not be related to money at all. Post-divorce modification cases often involve child custody or visitation and parenting plans, with one or both parties needing to make changes to existing arrangements.

The situations that give rise to post-judgment modifications are nearly endless. In our years of practice, we’ve represented scores of clients whose lives have changed and who need to consider modifying a pre-existing court order. A settlement or court order that may have worked for you at one point in your life doesn’t have to continue dictating how your life goes from now on.
