Spousal Support Modifications
Call the Law Office of Dennis R. Vetrano, Jr., LLC – (845) 605-4330
When you go through a divorce in New York, even if you and your ex-spouse both do not think that spousal support is necessary, the court will probably bring it up and encourage it to some extent. At that time, it probably seemed fair and balanced, or else your divorce might still be contested to this day. But as you surely learned just from going through a divorce, nothing in life is completely predictable and even the best laid plans can require reworking.
If you have come to realize that your spousal support agreement is no longer working for you for one reason or another, you should contact a lawyer from the Law Office of Dennis R. Vetrano, Jr., LLC. For years our firm has been focused on family law and divorce cases in New York, allowing us to develop numerous legal strategies to best handle your spousal support modification without forgetting your best interests or disrespecting the relationship you have rebuilt with your ex.
Reasons Why Your Spousal Support Should Be Modified
The divorce courts of New York State like precision and clear reasoning behind every ruling and decision. When you decide that it is time for your spousal support agreement to be modified, you must make a sensible, persuasive argument as to why. There must also be a solid, legal precedent at the groundwork of your argument.
Reasons you can request spousal support modifications include:
- Unexpected job loss
- Sudden illness or injury
- Remarried
- Necessary relocation
You can ask for a modification to spousal support payments from either side of the divorce agreement. If your spouse remarries, you can request that you no longer pay them any spousal support. If you lose your job, you can request an increase in the amount you receive each month. The possibilities will be varied depending on your original marriage, divorce, and personal lives.
