Keys to Custody Modification
Thursday, 23 April 2009 15:13
A petition to modify a custody order, previously issued by the Court is purely about change.  Change creates an effect and causes a reaction. By principle, the Court respects all previously drawn custody orders.  And chances for a court review depend highly on the substance of change and the effect/s it brings. And the cycle is therefore evident.   For anyone seeking counsel to modify a custody order in Michigan, there are five key recommendations to keep in mind: 1) Change management: a careful assessment begins by answering: what, when, why, where and how events have transpired since the previous custody order was issued; 2) be specific on the type of custody and the changes you want to invoke; 3) familiarize yourself on the Best Interests of the Child under the Michigan Child Custody Act; 4) stand firm on what you believe; and 5) prepare a self-made draft (packed with emotions is okay), and use it to guide you when you talk to your Michigan Family Law Lawyer.
