Life is constantly changing, and sometimes existing court orders related to custody, visitation, child support, or spousal support no longer fit your family’s current situation. At Jean Brown Law Firm, we assist clients in modifying court orders to reflect new circumstances and protect the best interests of your family.
When Can You Modify an Order in Texas?
Texas courts recognize that significant life changes may require adjustments to previous family law orders. Common reasons for modification requests include:
- Relocation of one parent
- Changes in employment or income
- Remarriage or new household members
- Changes in the child’s educational or medical needs
- Concerns regarding the child’s safety or well-being
- Changes in visitation schedules or custodial arrangements
Modifying Child Custody and Visitation
Texas courts prioritize the child’s best interests when evaluating modifications of custody and visitation (conservatorship) orders. We can help you demonstrate how your requested changes align with those interests, whether you’re seeking increased visitation, adjusted schedules, or modified custody arrangements.
Modifying Child Support
If your income has significantly increased or decreased, or if your child’s financial needs have changed, you may be eligible for a modification of child support. Our experienced attorneys can help ensure the new support obligations are fair, reasonable, and reflect your current circumstances.
Modifying Spousal Support (Alimony)
Changes in financial status, employment, remarriage, or other significant life events may also affect spousal support obligations. Jean Brown Law Firm can guide you through the process of seeking or contesting changes to existing spousal support orders.
