Fairfax Child Custody Modification Lawyer

Virginia Child Custody Modification Lawyer

When your divorce was finalized, it was based on the circumstances at that time. In the years to come after a divorce, it is not uncommon for things to change. People remarry, move and get new jobs. Some of these changes can merit modifications to existing child support orders. The law firm of Michael A. Ward, P.C., Attorney at Law, provides skilled legal help to custodial and non-custodial parents involved in child custody modifications.

Are you curious if a new job, remarriage or child relocation will affect custody and visitation? Call me at 703-763-0896 for skilled assistance from a Fairfax child custody modification attorney with more than 30 years of experience. I can meet with you at my Northern Virginia office in Fairfax or my Central Virginia/Lynchburg-area office in Forest.

When Can Child Custody Change?

I help parents and children throughout Virginia obtain the child custody and visitation arrangements that benefit both. I understand that parents want to have quality time with their children, and I know that determinations must be made in the best interests of the children. As a skilled attorney, I can advocate for the outcome you desire and the outcome that will be best for your children.

There are many factors that can merit a modification to child custody. Moving to another state or country, for example, can cause a change in custody. It must be proven that there has been a significant change in material circumstance and that the change is in the best interest of the child or children.

My law firm handles child custody modifications that can arise because of the following:

  • Parent relocation
  • Children get older and request to live with the other parent
  • Unfit parent
  • Significant change in financial situation
  • Remarriage

Child custody changes will most likely result in child support modification, which I can assist with as well.

My law firm can protect your parental rights and advocate for the best interests of your children. Call me today at 703-763-0896 or contact me online to schedule your consultation.
