Arizona law does not require divorcing spouses to predict the future with total certainty as they negotiate agreements on child support, child custody or spousal maintenance. If a substantial change of circumstances requires changes to the terms of a child support, child custody or spousal maintenance order, a petition for modification may be appropriate.
Enforcement through the courts is always an option if your ex-spouse has defaulted on their spousal maintenance (alimony) payments, child support obligations or compliance with other court orders. This includes failure to turn over assets, failure to pay debts as ordered, failure to sell an asset, etc.
At Lasiter & Jackson in Phoenix, our attorneys have substantial experience with both the modification and enforcement of ongoing family law issues. We will give you a fair assessment as to the likelihood that your case will succeed. We also advise clients on either side of enforcement issues.
