Ensuring court orders reflect your current situation.

Huffman-Shayeb Law, PLLC provides post-decree modifications, guiding clients through the legal process of adjusting court orders. Our divorce lawyer services in Phoenix, AZ, and the surrounding areas help clients modify existing decrees, ensuring they reflect current needs.

The court may modify your parenting schedule or legal decision-making orders if there is a substantial and continuing change to justify a modification. We can review your case to determine if you can file for a modification of your current court orders. We can also assist with trying to negotiate an agreed-upon change with the opposing party. In the event the opposing party is unwilling to agree to any modifications, we are able to assist with litigation.

We can help you petition for modifications of your current court orders

Your entire life can be affected by the terms of your divorce decree or decree for child custody. If you are unable with those final orders and feel they no longer are appropriate for your situation, you may still have an opportunity to make changes. You should consult with an attorney to discuss whether you have enough grounds to modify.

Grounds for post-decree modifications include:

  • Either parent relocating
  • A substantial change in the gross income of either party
  • A substantial change in the living expenses of either party
  • The child’s wishes
  • And more

Understanding Child Support modifications

Child support orders can be modified anytime the current order would go up or down 15%. These changes could occur if a substantial change in the gross income of either party has occurred, either through loss of employment or a raise in income, loss of health insurance, or other life changes.
