Child Custody Modification Orange County

Child Custody Modification | Orange County Family Law Attorneys Can Help

Life happens. Circumstances change. Even people change. If you’ve gone through a divorce or a legal separation, you understand this more than anyone else. An uncertain future can make deciding what’s best for your child at the end of a marriage highly distressing. That’s why we at The Law Office of Joseph P. Downs take extra care and diligence when handling child custody modification cases.

After decades of experience practicing family law and serving thousands of Orange County families, we understand that nothing is as important to you as caring for your children.  We also understand that the arrangements that were decided by the court during your family law case might not be in the best interests of your child down the road. If a significant change of circumstances has occurred, we can help you file a child custody modification in order to protect your child’s best interest.

Child custody modification cases can be very complicated, especially when contested. In a best case scenario, both parents will agree to a change that is then approved by the court. If an agreement can’t be reached, one parent must prove to the court that there has been a change in circumstance, harm to the child or other reasonable cause warranting a child custody modification.

In any situation, your chances at successfully winning a child custody modification are exponentially better when you retain an attorney that is experienced in Orange County family law. To this end, Joseph P. Downs is one of the best family law attorneys you can choose. With over 20 years of experience and thousands of successful family law cases tried in California, Mr. Downs commands both the respect within the court system as well as the expertise and knowledge you need to win your case and do what’s best for your child.
