Obtaining Order Modifications in Charlotte, North Carolina

Long after a divorce, you may still the have need for a family law attorney. When a significant change occurs in your life, your former spouse's life, or in the needs of your children, it may be necessary to obtain a modification to a support, custody or visitation order.

At the Law Office of Christopher Johnson, we handle all types of modification matters for our clients. These include modifications in:

• Child support orders
• Custody and visitation orders
• Spousal support orders
• Property division orders

We can also take legal action to enforce existing support, custody and property division orders.

In most cases, we can achieve these modifications efficiently and affordably. However, some post-decree modification matters are complex and require significant legal effort.

Modifications in Child Support

When a significant change in a parent's income occurs, when the living arrangements of the child change, or when a child's needs change, you can go to court to obtain a modification in child support. A parent's job layoff, a period of disability, a job promotion, or a child's changing educational needs may be enough to warrant a modification in child support.

If both parents have payroll jobs, our firm can usually achieve these types of modification quickly and affordably. However, if a parent is self-employed, owns a business, or is attempting to hide income, obtaining a modification becomes more problematic.

Attorney Christopher Johnson has experience in all types of modifications — both simple and complex — and will work energetically to achieve your goals as efficiently as possible.

Child Custody and Visitation

Sometimes it becomes necessary to seek a modification in parenting time, for example, when a parent's job schedule changes. As a child grows older, his or her needs change and this too may warrant seeking a modified custody and visitation order.

Our firm can often negotiate simple modifications with the other parent or their attorney in a cost-effective manner. Other custody matters can become highly contentious — such as the proposed relocation of a parent and child some distance away. Attorney Christopher Johnson is a strong litigator who will provide assertive representation to protect your rights and achieve your goals in these types of situations.
