Uncommon Legal Advocacy Focusing On Your Best Interests

Experienced Modification Lawyer Serving Jackson County

Family circumstances often change after a divorce or custody order is finalized. If you need to update a court order in Mississippi, I am attorney Rita Silin of Silin Law Firm PLLC, and I can assist you. Whether you are seeking a modification or responding to one, I can advocate for your interests and help you navigate the process.

With over 15 years of experience in family law, I understand the challenges that arise when life changes impact your legal arrangements. I take the time to review your case and determine the best path forward. As your lawyer, my goal is to secure outcomes that align with your needs and protect your rights, whether through negotiation or courtroom advocacy.

Types Of Modifications I Handle

Modifications are often necessary when circumstances significantly change. Common types of modifications include:

  • Child custody modification: Adjusting custody arrangements due to a parent’s relocation, a change in a child’s needs or concerns about a parent’s ability to provide a stable environment.
  • Child support modification: Changing the amount of child support due to income changes, job loss or other financial factors.
  • Alimony: Modifying spousal support based on changes in financial status, remarriage or other life events.
  • Visitation: Updating visitation schedules to reflect a child’s needs or a parent’s new circumstances.
  • Relocation or moving with a child: Seeking court approval to relocate with your child or challenging a relocation request.

If you are considering a modification, it is important to act promptly, as delays can impact your ability to secure a favorable outcome. Each modification request must demonstrate a material change in circumstances. I can help you gather evidence, present your case and advocate for your position throughout the process.
