Post Judgment IssuesAfter you receive a final judgment of divorce or paternity, circumstances can change. Children grow and their needs as a teenager are different from when they were a child, necessitating a change of custody or visitation. A parent may need to re-locate and want to move the child with him or her. You might lose a job or your child's parent may obtain a large raise. All of the above are reasons to modify child custody and visitation, child support or spousal support. It is also possible that, after receiving your divorce decree, you need assistance enforcing the terms of the judgment. For example, the sale of a home was agreed upon and your former spouse refuses to put it on the market or you need direction as to the division of retirement accounts. Perhaps you have a final divorce decree from another state and need to enforce the terms in California. There are times after a case is completed that issues remain and need to be addressed. |
