Modification of judicial measures: we adapt judicial decisions to your new reality

Over time, personal, family, or financial circumstances can change significantly. When this happens, the measures established in the judgment may no longer be appropriate or fair.

At Carmen Varela, Abogados de Familia, we help you request a modification of these measures before the court, provided there is a substantial and verifiable change. Whether it is a change in income, the needs of the children, or family dynamics, we work to ensure that the new conditions are legally reflected and reflect your current situation.

Our approach: legal flexibility and defense of your new situation

At Carmen Varela, Abogados de Familia, we understand that life changes and that judicial decisions must be able to adapt to these changes. Therefore, we approach each modification of measures with a practical, humane, and strategic approach.

We thoroughly analyze your current situation and compare the new circumstances with those that led to the original ruling. If the change is real, substantial, and verifiable, we prepare a solid and reasoned request for the court to assess the need to adjust the previous measures.

Whenever possible, we rely on an agreement between the parties, as an agreed-upon modification usually expedites the process and avoids confrontations. However, if there is no consensus, we firmly defend your interests in court, ensuring that the new ruling fairly reflects your current situation.

The path we walk together:

Analysis of the current sentence and your new situation

We review in detail the measures established in the original resolution and evaluate whether circumstances have changed substantially (economic, family, or personal).

Gathering documentation and evidence

We help you gather all the necessary information to support the change: income changes, children’s needs, new employment status, change of address, etc.

Attempt at out-of-court settlement

We seek an understanding with the other party to modify the measures through an agreement, avoiding contentious proceedings.

Filing of the modification request

If there is no agreement, we initiate legal proceedings, clearly and justifiably explaining the need for the change to the court.

Resolution and follow-up

Once the measures have been modified, we will assist you in complying with them and are available to make future adjustments if circumstances change again.
