Modification of Orders

Modification of California Family Court Orders

How Can I Modify A Family Court Order?

After the court has ordered child support, visitation rights, spousal support in a divorce or other family law case, following that order is not optional. Any party that fails to adhere to the ordered payments can face legal repercussions for being in contempt of court.

However, life changes, and family court orders should change with it. If you have undergone a substantial change in circumstances, and you qualify, you can petition the court for a modification of child support, child custody, spousal support, and more.

  • A change in occupation requires you to move out of state, which goes against your current custody order;
  • You recently lost your job and need more child support money OR cannot afford to pay child support;
  • Your former spouse recently got a raise, so you would like to decrease your alimony payments; or
  • You noticed your former spouse or partner mistreating or abusing your child and fear for their safety.
