Dedicated Service to Advance or Resist Modifications
After your child support or child custody and visitation order is put into place, the world continues to spin and your life or the life of the other parent can take unexpected turns.
By petitioning the court to make needed modifications, a knowledgeable lawyer can help make your child custody and child support order better reflect your current life circumstances. In addition, if another party is trying to force a modification that you don't want, you should find a lawyer who knows how to help you resist it.
Attorney Bryson D. Perkins provides professional, personalized and cost-effective services for family law modifications. Taking a thorough, detail-oriented approach, he works to bring about the best results possible while keeping clients' legal expenses low.

Handling a Wide Variety of Modification Issues
At Perkins Law PLLC, we provide services to help clients resist or advance modifications for a number of different issues. Serving Boise, Idaho and the greater Treasure Valley area, we handle:
- Child Support Modifications: If you or the other party experience a significant change in income, you have the right to file for a modification to reflect that change. If the parent paying child support receives a substantial raise, the custodial parent can ask for more child support. If the paying parent gets laid off, he or she can ask to have the payments halted or decreased.
- Child Custody and Visitation Modifications: If one parent wishes to move away, starts developing problems with drugs, or becomes abusive, the visitation order can be changed. In addition, you can change your order if it doesn't reflect the actual way you and the other parent share custody.
- Parental Relocation / Move Aways: If one parent wants to move to a new state, this will likely affect the previous visitation arrangement. Changes to this arrangement need to be approved by the court, prior to the move.
Enforcements
If one parent violates the custody or visitation order, the other parent can bring an enforcement action to force compliance. An enforcement hearing can be used to force a parent to make up all back payments in child support.
