Divorce Modifications in Massachusetts

After a divorce, people’s lives change. Over the months and years, they may change their jobs, marital status or living arrangements. When things like this occur, it will likely effect the judgments created in divorce or custody cases. As a result, the divorce judgment may be subject to modification. Examples include changes in income, custody, or visitation. If you are the non-custodial parent and you experience a reduction in your income, you may be entitled to a decrease in your child support payments. Conversely, if that same parent realizes an increase in income, they may be required to pay additional child support. The same holds true when considering alimony payments.
