Can I Seek A Custody Modification In Rochester Immediately After My Divorce?

You can seek a custody modification in Rochester when your circumstances change significantly and make the existing custody agreement untenable.

If this happens immediately after your divorce, such as by getting a job offer in another city or state, that is grounds to take your issue before a judge for a new hearing.

Generally speaking, judges won’t be willing to hear modification issues short of a major change in your life, and they won’t want to re-litigate a newly minted custody agreement based on minor problems you expect to have.

Custody modification is possible, and when events warrant it, experienced child custody attorneys can ensure that your issues have a full airing before a judge and that you get the best possible outcome.

Call the attorneys at Friedman & Ranzenhofer today at 585-484-7432 to speak to experienced Rochester child custody attorneys for free.
