San Diego Post-Judgment Family Law Modifications
When Life Changes, Your Legal Orders Should Too
Divorce agreements and family law orders are based on the facts at the time — but life moves on. Whether you’ve experienced a job loss, relocation, health change, or shift in parenting schedules, you may need to modify an existing court order. At Annis & Vercollone, we help clients throughout
San Diego County request, negotiate, and litigate post-judgment modifications with clarity and authority.
Why Post-Judgment Modifications Matter
Court orders don’t automatically update when your circumstances change — and failure to follow an outdated order can create serious legal consequences. Whether you’re the one requesting a modification or responding to one, skilled representation can protect your rights and help you avoid unnecessary conflict, penalties, or delays.
Our Legal Approach
Focused Strategy. Clear Counsel. Real Results.
We understand the urgency and emotion behind modification requests. Our job is to assess whether your situation meets the legal standard for change and to build a strategy that reflects the facts — and the law. Whether through negotiation or litigation, we’ll help you pursue a solution that works for your new reality.
What We Handle
Child Support Modifications
Income changes, childcare costs, or other factors may justify adjusting support amounts.
Spousal Support Modifications
Changes in income, remarriage, or retirement can trigger a need to increase, reduce, or terminate alimony.
Custody & Visitation Modifications
We represent parents seeking or contesting changes to physical or legal custody and visitation schedules.
Relocation & Move-Away Cases
If you or your co-parent needs to move, we help ensure your custody orders reflect the new situation — while protecting your child’s best interests.
