Orange County, New York, Child Custody Modification Attorney
The law offices of Jonathan D. Katz provides legal services for clients seeking to modify their child custody, child support or other support obligations in Orange County, New York.
Understanding how Orange County judges view requests for modification is an important factor when filing a successful petition. As a New York family law attorney for more than 25 years, I know the court procedures and the expectations. That means you won't pay for mistakes or a learning curve that often result from inexperience in the appropriate courts.
Knowledge of the Orange County Court System and Judges Makes a Difference
There are several factors an Orange County judge will take into consideration when deciding to accept a petition for a modification.
Some of the common factors include:
- Child's desire to modify the original parenting schedule
- Job schedule change for either the parent
- Significant change of income for either the parent
- Physical relocation of either the parent
- Health concerns for the child and parents
- Educational opportunities for the child
