Supporting You When Circumstances Change
Life is seldom static. We know that after your Judgment is entered there may be many life changes in your future which will cause your financial status to change. Any number of changes can spark the need for you to seek a modification of your court order for child or spousal support.
A Track Record of Getting Modifications to Support Orders
At the Law Offices of Teresa Bristow we understand how stressful change can be, no matter the reason. To help you obtain an arrangement that works better for your new circumstances, we can help you get a modification of your existing court order for child or spousal support.

A modification of your court order for support may be possible if you or your spouse have experienced any of the following:

- Health insurance costs
- Change in the amount of time the children spend with each parent
- Other factors specified in state guidelines
