Family Law Attorneys of Juris KC Can Help Make Child Custody Modification Order Changes
Cases involving child custody modification are those which change a previously-existing arrangement resolving where and with whom children will live, and who will control important aspects of those children’s lives such as education, health, religious training, extracurricular activities and more. These plans may need to be revisited and change as your child or children grow.
For child custody modification to occur, most states require proving a change in circumstances of the child or the custodial parent, or some other cause to allow for modification to occur. This process can occur formally before a court in trial or contested hearing, or informally if both parents agree to a set of terms. Informal changes are those that are minor, such as a change in visitation days, times, or location exchange and can be easily settled upon by both parents.
If a parent wants a more major or permanent change, then a formally filed order through the court may be necessary especially when it comes to joint or full custody adjustments. If parents cannot come to agreement or either parent does not support the modification, then the case is considered contested and it is strongly recommended that you seek the advice of a child custody modification attorney at Juris, and we can determine whether the adjustment is advisable, and if you should pursue further legal action.
