Modifying a Child Visitation Decree

Couples who decide that they can no longer honor the commitments they made through marriage will often be forced to go through the process of divorce. Through divorce proceedings, individuals often have to decide how to divide shared property and may be forced to reach an agreement about child support, custody, and visitation rights.

Because schedules and life circumstances often change, people may be forced to seek modifications to their original divorce agreements. If you would like assistance with modifying an agreement made in a divorce proceeding, contact an experienced Frisco divorce attorney of Alexander & Associates at 972-420-6570.

Child Visitation Modification

In order to modify the terms of a divorce agreement, persons typically must show:

• Circumstances must have drastically changed for an individual involved
• Material or substantial change to the individual's personal situation
• Agreement between parties or an “un-agreed modification”

Post-decree modifications may require the parties to reach new terms that they can both agree to, or the individual who wishes to initiate the change may be able to pursue modification to the terms through the legal process. As with many issues in divorce, it is often easier and less-expensive for persons to reach an agreement outside of court to avoid costly court and legal fees and a drawn-out process.
