Should your personal circumstances shift, you may be able to seek adjustments to your alimony or spousal support order. However, only specific changes in your situation can potentially sway the court into granting a modification to your spousal support.
Such conditions could encompass:
- The spouse receiving support no longer needs it
- The spouse paying support loses their job or is otherwise unable to afford payments
- The spouse receiving support remarries or enters a new domestic partnership
- The spouse receiving support is not making a good faith effort to become self-supporting
- Child support has ended
If you find yourself pondering over a spousal support modification, don’t hesitate to reach out to Kendall Gkikas & Mitchell, LLP to set up an initial consultation.
