Florida POST-JUDGMENT MODIFICATIONS LAWYER
Most people are familiar with the concept of appealing a court’s decision. This is typically reserved for criminal cases in which a defendant feels as though an error of law resulted in an unfair sentence or failure of justice. If you have a standing family court order in place, you might wonder whether you have any ability to change the elements of the order in a similar way, but the reality is there is a much simpler option that does not require a protracted appeal that challenges the initial ruling.

I worked with Elizabeth and she did way more for me than I thought possible. I was in a bad situation when I came in. She took my case then proceeded to go above and beyond until the very end. With them working my case my stress about the whole thing was pretty much gone.- Nick D.

I HIGHLY recommend him and his legal team of paralegals and staff because I had a great experience with them. Myles is smart and savvy and fully committed to his clients as an attorney and mediator. He represented me in my divorce and when we went to court his talent and expertise rose to the top giving me confidence and inspiration during this hardship. I am so glad I had Johnson O'Keefe at my side! It made my divorce a little bit easier knowing this group had my back and worked hard to get me what was fair and equitable with the utmost care and concern for me as a client and most importantly as an individual.- M.J.

Helping Florida Clients With Family Court Order Modifications
The Florida family courts recognize the fact that anyone can face unforeseen challenges in their life and very sudden changes in circumstances through no fault of their own. Many of these events can impact their standing in family court orders in various ways. For example, sudden job loss could leave a parent unable to meet their child’s support obligation. In addition, a sudden catastrophic injury could leave a parent unable to manage their parental responsibilities under their custody order. Ultimately, if you have a family court order and have recently experienced a sudden change in your life, the modification process allows you to address it efficiently without the need for an appeal.
