As an experienced family law attorney, Jim Kraayeveld is able to provide clients with personalized representation and fierce advocacy to ensure clients' rights are protected in post-judgment disputes. We handle cases involving various post-judgment issues, such as the following:

• Modification of child support: a change of circumstances, such as loss of a job, realizing new income, or promotion may require a change in child support orders
• Modification of custody: abuse or other factors may require the court to reevaluate custody decisions and potentially change joint custody to sole custody or sole custody to joint custody
• Modification of parenting time: parenting time may necessitate an increase or decrease when children mature, a parent's work schedule changes, or his or her ability to care for the child changes.
• Moving out of state: if a parent chooses to move out of state or more than 100 miles from his or her current location, court permission is required; if permission is granted, joint custody, parenting time, and other concerns may need to be addressed
• Modification of spousal support: once an individual returns to the workforce, or has an increase in income or a significant decrease in income, alimony/spousal support may require increase or reduction
• Modification of property division and divorce decrees: full disclosure is necessary when resolving marital division of assets; if an individual fraudulently fails to disclose certain separate or marital assets, the divorce settlement may be reevaluated by a judge to ensure fair property division
