Change of Circumstances

While there is no formal definition of what constitutes a change of circumstances, some courts may consider the following a change of circumstances that may qualify for a court ordered modification:

• Relocation (especially to another state)
• Loss of job or increase or decrease in earnings
• Unsuitable environment for children
• Unforeseen expenses, including medical expenses
• Drug or alcohol use or abuse

These are just a few of the situations that may be considered a significant change of circumstances, thus warranting a post divorce modification.

San Diego Post-Divorce Modification Attorney

Our post-divorce modification attorneys understand that a change of circumstances can be devastating. We will work with you to fully comprehend the scope of your problems, and we will focus our efforts on addressing those concerns.

One thing to be aware of is that even though a change of circumstances may have occurred in the past, in most cases, a court ordered modification will not take place retroactively. That means your new support payments will begin with the new order, and you may still be responsible for any delinquencies that occurred prior to the new order becoming effective.
