MOTIONS TO MODIFY OR ESTABLISH COURT ORDERS

You can only file a motion to modify an order or judgment for parental rights or divorce if there is a “substantial change in circumstances” that supports your claim.

Several factors qualify as a substantial change in circumstances since the court order, including:

A change in financial circumstances
Parents’ physical and mental health
Their relation with one another
Anything that disrupts the current custody or parenting plan

One or both parents may request modifications of the parenting agreement. They must file papers with the court asking for a change (“modification”) of the custody and visitation order, and present grounds for modification.

You must also fill forms and prepare a parenting plan for the new custody and visitation arrangement. That’s where we come in.
