Is it Time to Modify Your Utah Divorce Settlement?
2

• Life is full of changes. You may have lost a job
  or have developed a serious medical condition.
  Your children may also require additional medical
  assistance. You may have relocated out of state.
  When these serious changes occur, it can have a
  huge impact on your divorce settlement.
• One of the biggest myths in Utah family law is
  that all divorce settlements are final. That is
  not necessarily true. A significant change of
  income from either spouse, relocation or health
  issues can affect a persons ability to pay
  alimony, child support and even affect child
  custody and visitation rights. Although it is not
  easy to change the conditions of a divorce
  settlement in Utah, an experienced and
  knowledgeable Salt Lake City divorce attorney can
  help with modifications.
• First, it is important to understand not all
  divorce lawyers are the same. It is vital to
  select a Salt Lake City divorce attorney that
  places an emphasis on modifications. To receive a
  modification, the court will have to determine
  whether the request is in the best interest of
  the child. Here are some of the most common
  divorce modifications in Utah family law.

Child Custody Child custody is among the most
delicate and complex components of a divorce
settlement. To receive a modification, the
petitioner must prove there has been a
significant change in the childs living
environment. A change of income of either parent
can affect the amount of payment for child
support. If the child has developed a major
health condition, they may require money for
medical assistance. Under Utah law, if a child is
14 or older, their preferences can be recognized
by the court.

Child/Spousal Support A Salt Lake City divorce
attorney can petition the court for a
modification of child or spousal support.
Spousal support is a legal remedy designed to
help a financially weaker spouse maintain the
same lifestyle during the marriage. But if the
spouse paying child/spousal support loses their
job or has mounting medical bills, it can be
extremely difficult for them to continue making
payments.

Visitation When a spouse relocates to another
state or to another town far away from Salt Lake
City, a divorce attorney can petition the court
for a modification. You must prove the
relocation prevents both spouses from honoring
the conditions originally set by the court for
child visitation.

Division of Property Assets Typically, the
court will not make changes to the settlement
regarding the division of property and assets.
However, if an asset was not disclosed and the
petitioner discovers it after the divorce was
settled, they may be able to seek division of the
non-disclosed asset.
