Family court orders are not always permanent. When circumstances change or court orders are not followed, Arizona law allows for modification and enforcement proceedings. The Law Office of Lenore Tsakanikas represents clients in post-decree matters throughout Tucson and Southern Arizona.
Courts may modify legal decision-making, parenting time, or child support when a substantial and continuing change in circumstances is demonstrated. Careful preparation is essential in presenting evidence that supports modification.
When a party fails to comply with court-ordered obligations, enforcement remedies may be available. This may include enforcement of parenting time, unpaid child support, or other financial orders.
Enforcement actions can involve contempt proceedings, wage assignments, or court hearings designed to ensure compliance with existing court orders.
