Post-divorce modifications are often necessary when a change in employment, living conditions, or health effect your ability to adhere to the terms of your divorce settlement.

Can't I just reach an Agreement with my Ex? Do I have to go to Court?
Unfortunately, many people are tempted to reach an informal agreement with their spouse when they can no longer meet the obligations contained in their divorce settlement. Individuals who are on good terms with their former spouse believe it is easier to simply reach an agreement with them regarding reduced child support, changes in visitation, or temporary custody. However, if something should happen to your child or if your relationship sours, you can be brought into court and held liable for any harm suffered or back-owed child / spousal support. In addition to creating financial difficulties, you may also be subject to legal penalties and fines.
