Twin Cities Modifications Attorneys Supporting Families’ Changing Needs
Last updated on August 1, 2025
Life is in a continual state of change. From time to time, your existing arrangements may require modifications. In many cases, the financial circumstances that were used to calculate the appropriate spousal support or child support amount may have significantly changed. Shifts in your situation may also mean that you need to update your custody arrangement.
At Huson Law Firm, PLLC, our practice has always kept a clear eye on the fluctuating realities of our clients’ lives. When life changes require a post-divorce modification, our lawyers put the full weight of their experience, knowledge of Minnesota law and skills into motion to make that happen.
Adapting Custody Arrangements To Reflect Your Life
It can be difficult to alter a custody agreement without the consent of both parents. Minnesota allows for post-divorce modifications to protect parental rights. This generally occurs in the following situations:
- When it’s necessary to protect the child from physical, emotional or developmental harm
- When one parent makes an unjustified denial or interferes with an established parenting schedule
- When a change in the circumstances makes a modification necessary to serve the best interests of the child
Whatever the circumstances are, a change in child custody is a serious matter for any parent, and it is one that our attorneys treat with prompt and focused attention.
Ensuring Your Child Has The Support They Need
The court calculates child support responsibilities using a number of factors that include the financial resources and gross income of both parents. Because these figures can frequently change, post-divorce modifications can ensure that support payments reflect existing financial realities.
Our lawyers know that a change in circumstances can make an existing order unreasonable or unfair. Therefore, they do what they can to meet the best interests of our clients’ children while promoting an appropriate division of financial responsibilities.
Modifying Spousal Support To Match Your Circumstances
Spousal support, also called alimony, can be a major part of your finances after a divorce. What our attorneys’ more than 30 collective years of family law practice – as well as their own lives – have made clear is that financial circumstances often change.
They regularly pursue the post-divorce modifications that our clients need for their financial security. Whether you receive alimony from your former spouse or you make these support payments, a modification can help ensure that these payments are a fair reflection of your financial situation.
