Post-Decree Enforcement & Modification

Ensuring Compliance and Adapting to Change

When your circumstances change or when the other party refuses to comply with court orders our attorneys step in to enforce or modify existing judgments.

We handle:

  • Contempt actions and enforcement of orders
  • Child support recalculations and arrears
  • Custody or parenting plan modifications
  • Spousal support (alimony) adjustments
  • Enforcement of property settlements

We approach enforcement matters decisively yet diplomatically, seeking compliance through negotiation first, then litigation if necessary.

FAQs

Q1: What if my ex refuses to pay child support?

We can file a contempt motion to enforce payments, seek wage garnishment, or intercept tax refunds.

Q2: Can spousal support be changed?

Yes — if income or circumstances have changed significantly, we can request modification.

Q3: Can custody orders be modified?

Custody changes require a substantial change in circumstances. We guide clients through the necessary legal showing.
