Property distribution provisions in a divorce decree are not modifiable. If you have any questions or concerns about modifying a current divorce order, our Seattle modification lawyers can offer personalized guidance and trusted advice.

Justifying Modification After Divorce

Modifications must be approved by the court. Courts will only approve a request if an individual experienced a significant change in his or her circumstances that justifies the need to modify an existing judgment.

You should never simply relocate or refuse to uphold your court order. Such actions can lead to legal penalties, so it is important that you follow court procedures and submit a sound, convincing petition to the court with the help of an attorney. From start to finish, we can help you prepare a persuasive modification petition and resolve any obstacles or disputes along the way.
