Contact us to schedule a consultation about how a Board Certified Family Law Specialist can help you resolve all of your child custody and visitation matters. Our attorneys and staff will always work in the best interests of the children toward effective resolution of your legal problem. When custody is shared, the non-custodial parent may wish to modify an order to spend more time with the child. We can help when a parent wishes to increase his or her visitation or when a parent relocates. We also help custodial parents who need to enforce the child support order, in the event a non-custodial parent is lapsing or refusing payment.

It also frequently happens that a non-custodial parent may need to modify child support because of the loss of a job or a change in financial or health circumstances. If the non-custodial parent's situation has changed substantially for the better, an increase in child support could be sought. If the non-custodial parent's situation has changed substantially for the worse, a reduction of child support may be appropriate.

Grandparents may desire to have some visitation despite their estranged relationship with either or both parents of a grandchild. Though recent legislation has somewhat restricted this opportunity, there may be some options we can pursue.
