Deer Park Spousal Support Modification Lawyer
When a divorce is settled, there may be spousal support orders that require one spouse to make payments to the other for a certain length of time after the divorce.
This is usually the case if one spouse makes a significant amount of money more than the other and how long the couple was married.
However, after a certain amount of time, the need often arises for the support order to be modified.
There are many reasons why may be necessary, including:
- The spouse receiving support gets a new job, promotion, or raise, rendering spousal support unnecessary.
- The spouse paying support loses his or her job or is no longer able to keep up payments.
- One spouse becoming permanently disabled or otherwise unable to work.
- One spouse remarrying
These are just a few reasons a spouse may pursue a spousal support modification. Whether you seek the modification or fight against it, you need a Deer Park divorce attorney to help fight your case.
We will fight for your best interest and make sure you do not get slammed with a larger payment or, on the other hand, lose the support you so desperately need.
