Modifications

Seattle Child Support Modification Lawyer

In life, nothing is ever constant. Life after divorce is no exception. The incomes of the parties can change. The financial and personal needs of children can change. A parent's work schedule may change. When these occur, the law allows a party to seek a modification in support requirements or parenting plans.

Pierce Law Offices can represent you in matters involving post-decree modifications, including:

  • Modifications in child support
  • Modification in child custody
  • Modifications in parenting plans
  • Parental relocations
  • Modifications in spousal support

Call us at 206-587-3757 for a free phone consultation.

Representation in Child Support Modification Actions

Washington State law allows a modification in child support every two years, or when a substantial change in circumstances occurs. In general, the Court does not consider a period of temporary unemployment to be significant enough to grant a child support modification order. It will, however, consider a prolonged period of unemployment or a disability to be significant.

Pierce Law Offices understands how the Court views and evaluates such situations. Our substantial experience in arguing modification petitions before the Court can enable us to present persuasive pleadings on your behalf.

Representation in Child Custody Modification Actions

In many cases involving modifications to parenting plans, Pierce Law Offices can reach a workable and acceptable solution through negotiation with the attorney for the other parent.

The Court is reluctant to disturb child custody arrangements unless significant factors require it. However, when presented with compelling evidence, the Court will act. Our firm has significant experience in litigation involving parental relocation and termination of parental rights. Pierce Law Offices will forcefully argue on your behalf.

In all modification actions, Pierce Law Offices will work to protect your rights and the best interests of your children.
