The end of a marriage occurs when both parties reach a
divorce agreement which details how
child custody,
child support,
alimony, and
property are divided. However, life circumstances may change later and affect a
person’s ability to obey the court ordered agreement.

of your legal options in order to get the results you want and need. With

Why a Post-Divorce Modification Is Right for You
Modifying a court order or bringing an enforcement action could become
necessary after a divorce has been finalized. A modification may be required
when there has been a “substantial change” in the circumstances
of either a spouse or a child which make the original agreement unworkable
or inequitable.
Substantial changes include:
- Loss of job
- Gaining new employment
- Physical injury or illness
- Economic downturn
- Business failure
- Relocating elsewhere in Florida or out of state
- Change in dependent’s status
- Remarriage
- Death
On the other hand, enforcement issues may arise if one spouse continuously
refuses to comply with the terms of the divorce agreement. The majority
of these cases often involve the nonpayment of support, custody matters,
visitation issues, and transfers of property.
