Modifications

North Carolina Divorce Modification Attorneys

After a divorce, life moves on for the men, women and children involved. With life comes change. When change has an impact on court orders, parties must take legal action to seek formal modifications. It is important to know that not every court order is modifiable. There are legal standards that must be met in order to modify certain types of court orders and failure to meet those standards can result in your motions being denied and dismissed.

At The Law Office of Bryce D. Neier, our goal is to assist you through your family law challenges and to help you move forward with your life. As a full-service family law firm in Fayetteville, we offer efficiency and experience for those seeking resolution to legal problems. Contact us to discuss your questions and concerns.

Changing Agreements and Court Orders

In family law, the areas that require court order modifications most frequently include child custody and visitation, child support and alimony. In each circumstance seeking a modification to an existing court order, the person seeking the modification of a prior permanent court order must prove a substantial change in circumstances since the entry (filing date) of that particular order. These changes may include:

  • A job loss or other significant change in income
  • The evolving needs of a growing child
  • A difference in the needs of a spouse
  • Parental relocation including military assignment
  • Remarriage
  • Disability
  • Child safety

By consulting with our firm, we can help someone know whether or not he or she meets the qualifications to seek modifications of court orders. If so, we will represent the individual in filing a motion to modify orders. We also work with those who wish to defend existing orders for child custody and support, alimony or other family law decrees.
