Absolutely! A child support order can be modified under certain circumstances. These include:
- A parent loses their job
- A parent gets a new job or promotion
- A parent gets remarried or enters into a domestic partnership with a high-earning spouse
- The custody agreement is changed
- A child becomes emancipation
- Support needs to extend beyond 18 to care for a disabled adult child
The law understands that life changes, and therefore child support must be adaptable. However, the process to modify a child support order can be complex and nuanced. It is beneficial to call upon the expertise of Kendall Gkikas & Mitchell, LLP to professionally guide you through the modification process.
