Macomb County Post Judgment Modifications Lawyers

Modifications in Michigan Divorce Cases

Under the Michigan Statutes, important issues pertaining to the division of marital property and assets must be addressed before your divorce can become finalized. This also includes arrangements regarding spousal support, or alimony, based on each party’s income and their contributions to the marriage.

In cases in which circumstances change or new facts are revealed, orders issued may need to be changed. At Iafrate & Salassa, P.C. our Michigan post judgment modification attorneys can represent you in increasing, decreasing, or putting a stop to spousal support, or in addressing how marital property and assets were divided. Grounds for returning to court include:

• Changes in income, due to health issues and job gains or losses;
• Changes in personal circumstances, such as remarriage or the birth of additional children;
• Previously undisclosed information, which has recently come to light.

If one of the parties has failed to comply with the terms of any prior agreements, modifications may help with enforcement efforts.

Modifications in Child Custody and Support Proceedings

Under Michigan Supreme Court guidelines, if there are children from the marriage and a prior order was issued regarding child custody or support payments, these may also be modified to reflect changes in circumstances. At Iafrate & Salassa, P.C. we can guide you in post judgment modifications requesting the following:

• Changes in custody arrangements, ordering joint or shared custody or preventing one of the parents to move out of the area with the child;
• Changes in visitation, specifying whether it occurs on a supervised or unsupervised basis;
• Changes in visitation times, permitting increased or decreased time over weeknights, weekends, school breaks, and holidays;
• Changes in child support, changing the amount paid and how it is collected or disbursed.
