We understand that situations change and that certain aspects of a divorce decree may have to be revisited in the interests of fairness and accommodating unpredictable circumstances, such as:

• Unexpected doctors' or hospital bills after an injury or illness
• Unemployment or significant decrease in income on the part of the noncustodial parent
• Special needs diagnosis requiring additional medical or educational support
• Tuition increases at private schools (especially important in Louisiana)
• Change in residence on the part of the custodial parent (often referred to as move-away cases)
• Short term or long term disability rendering the custodial parent incapable of caring for the child

Modification of existing divorce, alimony, child custody and support agreements often takes a very rational and methodical approach. It also can require the skills of an experienced lawyer who takes the time to get to know you and your challenges in order to better convey your position and your need for modification to a judge.
