Post-Divorce Modifications

Modifications to Child Custody, Visitation, and Support

At the Law Office of Serena Carroll, our Fort Lauderdale lawyer helps clients throughout Broward County to obtain necessary changes to divorce agreements that better reflect their current needs and situations. Some of the significant changes that may allow you to obtain a modification to the child custody, child visitation, child support, and alimony terms outlined in your divorce settlement agreement can include:

• Loss of a job / job promotion
• A major illness or disability
• Drug or alcohol abuse
• Custodial parent relocation

In general, obtaining post-decree modifications to custody, visitation, and support is not difficult if there has been such a real change in the lives of either spouse or in the needs of the children. Whether this involves seeking a temporary change due to a short-term illness or a termination of alimony because your former spouse has been cohabitating with another person as if he or she were married—attorney Serena Carroll will help you to compile the necessary documentation and get the process started.

In many cases, our law office has had success with helping clients to reach reasonable agreements with their former spouse outside of court. This can save a great deal of time and money. However, there are always situations that cannot be solved in this way and that must go to court. In either case, our firm will work efficiently and cost-effectively to achieve a successful outcome.
