Custody Modification in Georgia
Some of the most common reasons for initiating modification of custody agreements include relocation and changes in the lifestyle or circumstances of one parent. If you wish to change your existing custody agreement and your spouse will not agree to it, we can file a motion on your behalf. Contact us to arrange a private meeting with our Decatur child custody attorney, at no cost or obligation. We can save you time and money by determining whether your request will meet the court's requirement for proof of a substantial change in circumstances before approving a modification. The overriding factor for the court's decision regarding the arrangement is the best interests of the child, which are usually based upon issues such as:
- Parental stability
- Employment schedules
- The child's relationship with each parent
- Financial capability to provide food, clothing, medical care, education and daily needs
- Willingness of one parent to encourage a close relationship with the other parent
- Each parent's past behavior regarding the child and the existing arrangement
We encourage you to take advantage of our offer of a free consultation with our lawyer so we can discuss the possibility of a modification and explain your legal rights. You are under no obligation to retain the services of our firm.
