Child Support Modification


Ensuring Fair and Updated Support Arrangements

Circumstances can change after a divorce, and when significant changes occur, child support orders may need to be modified. Whether due to changes in income, employment, relocation, or the needs of the child, the court allows for child support modification under specific conditions. At BCN Law Firm, we assist parents in navigating the process of modifying child support arrangements to ensure they are fair and reflect current circumstances. Our experienced attorneys are here to guide you through the legal process and help you secure the most appropriate support arrangement for your family.

Practical and Balanced Child Support Modification Services

In Florida, child support orders can only be modified under certain conditions, and the court requires a substantial change in circumstances to justify the modification. Some common reasons for modifying child support include:

  • Changes in Income: If one parent experiences a significant change in income—whether through job loss, a promotion, or another financial shift—a modification to the child support order may be necessary.
  • Changes in the Child’s Needs: As children grow, their needs may change, requiring more or less financial support. This can include increased educational expenses, healthcare costs, or changes in living arrangements.
  • Parental Relocation: If one parent moves out of state or relocates a significant distance, child support arrangements may need to be revisited to reflect new travel or custody-related expenses.
  • Changes in Custody or Visitation: If there is a change in the custody arrangement, such as one parent gaining or losing custody or significant time-sharing, the child support order may need to be modified to reflect the new situation.

Frequently Asked Questions About Child Support Modifications

If both parents agree to the modification, it may be possible to work out new terms without going to court. However, the new arrangement must still be approved by the court to become legally enforceable.

A substantial change in circumstances typically refers to a significant change in income, employment status, or the needs of the child. The change must be substantial enough to warrant a review of the current child support order.

The length of the modification process depends on the complexity of the case and whether both parties agree on the new terms. In some cases, modifications can be resolved quickly, while others may take longer, especially if litigation is involved.

5-Star Reviews from Satisfied Clients

Our Clients Appreciate Our Dedication and Expertise

Lois Carr
Polite, knowledgeable and thorough. Our attorney was prepared for our visit. We were treated with respect.
Robert Miner
I was referred to Wade Boyette by my investment advisor, Jean Dorrell, after moving to Florida and needing to set up a Trust and update my Will. Before deciding to work with Wade, I did my due diligence — reviewing his Better Business Bureau rating and reading online reviews — all of which were overwhelmingly positive, and now I see why.

From our first meeting, I was very impressed with Wade’s knowledge, professionalism, and ability to clearly explain the legal process. He answered all my questions thoroughly and offered thoughtful advice tailored to my situation. He handled the setup of my Trust and the update to my Will efficiently and in a timely manner.

I highly recommend Wade Boyette to anyone in need of reliable and experienced legal services.
Shannon Bass
Office ataff was extremely friendly! Wade was fantastic and explained everything to us! I highly recommend them.
Troy Ford
I had the misfortune of having to file for bankruptcy last year. I hired BCN Law firm to handle my case and dealt mostly with Ken Costello and his assistant Carol. They did an outstanding job on my case which was not the average case. They analyzed my situation and found the best path for me to move forward. It did take a long time to go through (such is the case with bankruptcy) but Carol kept my wife and me updated and assured us that our worst fears were not something that was going to happen. I would recommend the firm to anyone who needs one of the services they provide.
Sonja Gore
I had a great professional experience with the staff at BCN Law Firm and wholeheartedly recommend to any future clients in need of organizing their final affairs.
Lynn Willis
Everyone was very friendly, concerned about us. They explained everything to us. Thank you for your kindness.
Jeff Milroy
My experience with Heath and the staff was great. This was something new for me, and they explained everything very well. It was easy to get my questions answered and the whole process seemed to go very smoothly. Heath's paralegal Lynnette was very helpful and kept me updated and informed along the way. Thank you all so much and I will definitely use and recommend you in the future.
Lula Patrick

BCN and Wade Boyette were very professional in every way in support of our needs for our final documents. They go the extra few miles to insure satisfaction of service.
