Life changes happen, and not all changes will keep things the same. Medical changes, career changes, or maybe your spouse has become unfit to care for your children. Filing a modification allows an individual to change existing court orders. An agreed or contested modification can be filed. If both parties agree on the order, they can create an agreement on the new changes, and both parties can sign. The judge can then approve the modifications. If there is a disagreement on modifying an existing order, the party who wishes to modify the order must file a petition. A trial will be held, and both parties will have to appear in court and present evidence to the judge to prove their case. The court will ultimately determine the outcome of the order. The documentation needed to modify an existing order may seem complex; having an experienced modification lawyer can help.
