Modifying Parenting Plans in Seattle

Our Seattle parenting plan modification attorneys can help you make changes when they become necessary

Divorced parents must still find a way to work together in order to provide their children with the best living arrangements they possibly can. This will be a key aspect of the child's development as they mature, and both parents must share in this responsibility. When parents finally agree on a child's living arrangements during the divorce process, this is called a parenting plan, but there are times that it must be redressed well after a divorce is completed. This process can be quite complicated, so it is vital to get help with child custody issues from experienced Seattle parenting plan modification lawyers who understand the law.

If you are seeking to modify a custody arrangement, our Seattle parenting plan attorneys will help you focus on key aspects of the process that are of the most importance. Obviously, keeping animosity and conflict with your ex-spouse to a minimum will be vital toward reaching an agreement, and our Seattle child custody lawyers work hard to make sure that negotiations continue unabated even when problems arise.

When modifying a parenting plan is necessary, our legal professionals may address some of these important issues:

  • Determining who the primary residential parent will be and how the child's placement will be structured
  • Helping both parents come to an agreement in determining which party will make decisions that affect the child's life
  • Working out a reasonable system that will help settle future disputes
  • Deciding who will steer the focus of the child's choice of religion and education

Our Seattle parenting plan attorneys always urge parents to work toward a mutually agreed-upon residential placement that benefits their children. Most parents want to stay out of court, so our Seattle child custody lawyers always encourage amicable negotiations. Throughout this complex process our Seattle parenting plan modification attorneys will offer you trustworthy counsel based upon real world experience, so that you can deal with custody related issues with confidence.

Resolve your situation with help from our divorce lawyers in Seattle

Studies indicate that when parents work together and agree upon a child custody agreement, it is far more likely to be followed than when the court imposes its own plan. While there may be times that reaching an agreement seems an impossible task, this is when our Seattle parenting plan modification lawyers will urge you to seek mediation, arbitration, or even counseling.

Another way to reach a mutually agreed upon plan is to have each parent design their own parenting plan and then work with the mediator to hammer out the details. Once an agreement is finalized by the parents, our Seattle child custody lawyers will take the final parenting plan draft to court for it to be signed by a judge.

Whether you have been served with a notice that an spouse is seeking to modify your current child custody arrangements, or you’re hopeful that an existing plan may be modified, our Seattle parenting plan attorneys can help you understand the law before you take your first action. Our offer of a free consultation allows you to find out more details about child custody, and how your parenting plan may be modified according to the law.

Your children deserve the best custody arrangement possible, so contact us today for reliable legal counsel that ensures they have the best future possible.

"I can't say enough great things about Jason Newcombe Law Office. I am retired military and I highly recommend Jason Newcombe Law Office. I reached out to Jason's office after sitting for hours reviewing multiple Domestic Violence Law Offices in King County. He responded before that day was over. I spoke with Jason's both in-person and by phone; felt very comfortable with his years of experience and straight talk. He took on my case, took me through the process with sound advice. The Attorney Erin Lane who accompanied me with my court appearances; can't praise and thank her enough for her time, selflessness and educational information prior to each court appearance. She made a really daunting task for me less fearful, given such grim circumstances. I am forever grateful for Jason and the Team of Attorneys." Tommy Harville
