Massachusetts Post-Divorce Modifications Attorney
At the time a divorce, paternity or other child-related decree is issued, the judge will issue orders regarding such matters as child custody, visitation and child support. These orders will stay in place until one of the parties asks the court to modify them. When you can present evidence that a significant change in circumstances has occurred and justifies a modification, the judge has the power to issue a new order.
Mavrides Law has been representing clients in matters involving post-divorce modifications for more than 25 years. In many cases, the firm can obtain a modification efficiently in a relatively short amount of time. Other modification cases can be quite complex and require a significant legal effort to achieve.
Mavrides Law can represent you in matters such as:
- Modifications in child support and health insurance coverage/expenses
- Modifications in child custody and visitation
- Proposed child relocations
- Modifications in alimony (spousal support)
- Modifications in property division in limited cases
The firm also represents clients in appeals of family law orders.

Child Support Modifications
When the income of a parent changes significantly or child custody arrangements change, Mavrides Law can go to court to seek a modification in the child support level. Usually, obtaining these types of modifications is routine, and Mavrides Law can often obtain these quickly and cost-efficiently.
Some cases can be much more complex, for example when a parent is attempting to hide income or intentionally being underemployed. Attorney Marcia Mavrides has handled a wide range of complex child support modification matters, and will represent you in court to protect your rights and aggressively pursue your goals.
Custody and Visitation Modifications
Mavrides Law can also represent you in matters involving modifications in custody and visitation. Often, the firm can negotiate with the other party to reach a workable and acceptable solution. However, a proposed parental relocation with intention to take the child out of state usually results in litigation. Mavrides Law will assertively defend your rights at all stages of the legal process.
