Naperville Attorneys for Modifying Child Custody Orders

Parenting Time Order Modification Lawyers in DuPage, Kane, Will, and Kendall Counties

At Calabrese Associates, P.C., our team is committed to helping your family thrive long after the difficult processes of divorce, legal separation, and other types of household division. We understand how much you love your children and how challenging it can be when you are subject to a child custody order that no longer accurately reflects your family's situation.

New Approach to Child Custody

If your existing parenting order was entered prior to 2016, it was drafted under the previous statutes regarding child custody. You and the other parent may share joint custody of your child, or one of you has been granted sole custody. Changes to the law, however, mean that orders no longer make reference to custody whatsoever. Instead, "parental responsibilities" are to be allocated between the parents in a more fluid, cooperative manner than under previous law.

When your existing order no longer meets your child's needs or is not reflective of your current circumstances, our attorneys assist you in petitioning the court for a modification. It is possible that your order will need to be reworked to comply with the new laws, and we are equipped to help you through the process.

Parenting Time and Parental Responsibilities Attorneys Serving Warrenville and Aurora, IL

There are a number of scenarios that may require a parental responsibility or parenting time order to be modified, including:

• Significant changes in the child's needs;
• Significant changes in either parent's financial or living situation, such as a remarriage or move;
• A parent seeking a distant or out-of-state relocation with the child; or
• The need for a new parenting time/visitation schedule.

The experienced attorneys at Calabrese Associates, P.C., realize the time you spend with your child is important. As a parent, you are presumed to have the right to reasonable parenting time—previously known as "visitation"—so you can maintain a healthy relationship. We also understand, in some cases, you may be concerned about dangers presented when the other parent utilizes his or her parenting time. We are prepared to assist you in taking the necessary steps, including seeking a modification of your parenting time order to ensure your child's safety and well-being.
