Post-Judgment Actions in Suffolk County

Contact Us Today!
 

In Suffolk County, judges often have to make legally binding decisions based on the circumstances that are currently present for the parties involved. Of course, a judge can’t see into the future and know what may change down the road. That being said, when circumstances do change, the individuals who are involved may want to request a post-judgment modification. In New York State, if an individual wishes to request a post-judgment modification, they will have to prove to the court that circumstances have, in fact, changed and that as a result, a modification is necessary.

Some of the types of orders that may be modified in New York State include the following:

  • Child support orders
  • Child custody arrangements
  • Spousal maintenance
  • Visitation arrangements
  • Relocation with the child

These matters may need to be modified for any number of reasons, some of which can include:

  • One of the parents or former spouses has had a loss or significant change in income
  • One of the parents has become ill and can no longer adequately care for the child
  • A job opportunity has presented itself that may require the parent and child to move

Individuals requesting a change will have to meet a very high standard of unforeseen circumstances. If you need an attorney to help with a modification, contact us today.

What Our Clients Are Saying

I hired Susan to represent me in a divorce matter where I was fighting for custody and to limit my wife's equitable share of our assets. I won custody of our son, kept the marital residence, kept my professional practice, kept my building and paid less than half to my wife. This was after a long-term marriage. She could persuade the court that equitable is not equal and sometimes the man does deserve to win!

I first must say that I had been represented by two prior attorneys both of whom had simply taken my money and left me nothing to show for it in my custody case. They kept telling me what they were doing for me but I found out they were lying. Susan on the other hand had gotten me temporary custody and support for my children and myself within two months of hiring her. I cannot say enough about her.

‐ Craig

After talking to a few other attorneys, I hired Susan to represent me in my divorce and custody dispute. I was reluctant to go with her because she was the cheapest out of all the other attorneys I met with, but I'm so glad I did. I am 100% positive no one else would have done such a great job with my case as Susan and her staff. Her work is quality, her staff is reliable and her character is honorable. There...

‐ Linda

I had a very difficult case where I had already burned through two attorneys who were unable to get me custody of my children and complete my divorce. Susan was able to rapidly work out an agreement and not let it just malinger on like my previous experiences. She was also considerate of my financial situation unlike all of the other lawyers I had spoken to. I highly recommend her if you want complete and caring service with an in-depth knowledge of...
