Post-Judgment Modifications & Enforcement
A family law judgment may resolve the initial case, but it does not always mark the end of legal issues between former spouses or co-parents. Families change, financial circumstances evolve, and sometimes existing court orders are not followed.
Our attorneys assist clients with post-judgment matters involving both modification of existing orders and enforcement when those orders are not being followed.
Modifications
Court orders that worked when they were originally entered may no longer fit a family’s circumstances. Significant changes involving relocation, employment, income, parenting schedules, or a child’s needs may create a reason to seek modification of an existing order.
We assist with modifications involving:
- Legal custody and parenting plans
- Child support
- Spousal support

Enforcement & Contempt
When a former spouse or co-parent fails to follow an existing court order, legal action may be necessary to obtain compliance. Enforcement proceedings can address violations involving financial obligations, parenting time, and other requirements established by the court.
We assist with enforcement matters involving:
- Child and spousal support
- Parenting time and custody orders
- Contempt and other enforcement proceedings
