Miami-Dade County Modifications Lawyer
When you made your initial divorce settlement plan, it was based upon the conditions existing at the time. If you or your spouse has undergone a major financial or life change since then, a post-divorce modification may be appropriate.

Whether you receive a modification depends on the facts specific to your family's situation. A substantial change in income will generally warrant a modification. Modifications are also common in instances of relocation. An experienced Miami-Dade County attorney can help you evaluate your situation and how it may affect your divorce settlement in the following areas:
- Custody
- Visitation
- Alimony/Support
It is important to note that you cannot obtain a modification of your property settlement. There is nothing you can do about equitable distribution, regardless of any financial changes for you or your spouse.
Supplemental Petition for Modification
While it is an expensive and difficult process, if it is in the best interest of your children, you can pursue a modification of your child custody plan as well. Since there are more than just financial factors, modification may require a psychological exam, as well as drug testing.
