Wheaton divorce modification lawyers

Wheaton, Illinois Divorce Lawyers

One thing about a divorce is that it continually changes well after the court issues its final divorce decree. The relationship between you, your ex-spouse, and children will evolve over time. You need a modification of a court order to reflect the changes in your family's relationships.

At the Law Offices of Salvatore C. Miglore & Associates, located in Wheaton, Illinois, we petition the court for a modification of a divorce decree for a substantial change in your family's circumstances. We will get a post-decree modification of child custody, maintenance, and a child support judgment.

Some common things that require a post-divorce decree hearing involve:

  • Custody and child support enforcements and contempt;
  • Modifications or terminations of maintenance;
  • Child support increases or decreases;
  • When a custodial parent relocates;
  • Parenting plan concerns;
  • Educational and healthcare expenses; and
  • Issues concerning visitation and abuse.

You can modify custody during post-decree proceedings. In order to petition the court successfully for a modification of custody you must prove that it is in the child's best interests and you have waited two years and a day before seeking the modification. Lawyer Miglore will seek to modify custody earlier if you prove your child's safety is endangered.

Child support is an area that changes constantly during the life of a divorce. A change in a child's needs, your ex-spouse's ability to pay, increase in income, and cost of living all factor into the modification of a child support. You must petition for a substantial modification of child support award to have the court consider your request.

For more information about the modification of an original court order, contact an attorney at the Law Offices of Salvatore C. Miglore & Associates. We serve clients in DuPage, Cook, Will, McHenry, Lake, Kane and Kendall Counties.
