You’re divorced— but unhappy with the terms of your divorce. A Hackensack post-judgment modifications lawyer may be the right lawyer for you.
If you’re reading this, chances are you’re divorced. And though it was long, difficult, and maybe even cost more than you initially thought, you’re probably happy you’re divorced. (It’s why our firm motto is Move Forward— you may not even have been the party to first broach the topic of divorce, and yet divorced people are usually happy when they, well… move forward.)
But what if you’re not happy with the terms of your divorce? What if your circumstances— a new job or the loss of your job— have changed? That’s where an experienced divorce attorney can help.
After your divorce case is closed, if you want to change any decision the Court has made or you yourself agreed to, you’ll need to work with a Hackensack post-judgment modification attorney to petition the Court to modify your judgment of divorce. First and foremost, you must prove a substantial change in circumstances. Post-judgment motions encompass many, many aspects of the divorce process, including but not limited to:
And so on, and so on… there’s no real end to all the myriad of issues that may arise and need to be addressed after a divorce is seemingly final. (Not what everyone wants to hear, but as divorce is part of life, so long as life goes on, divorce goes on…) And should you be the party who receives a post-judgment modification filed with the Court, of course, you’ll need to retain your own post-judgment modification lawyer in Hackensack to respond to best represent your interests.
Hopefully, your post-divorce life will be long and happy. Our firm’s motto is Move Forward, and that’s precisely what we help clients do— even when moving forward sometimes means dealing with issues we thought were settled, or deciding that the settlement, in this aspect, doesn’t work for us. A Hackensack post-judgment modifications lawyer may be just the right lawyer to help your forward momentum.
