Parenting Agreement Modification Woodbury, Minnesota
Nov 12, 2018
When you sign your divorce papers after many months (or even years) of negotiating a settlement, many people assume that is the end of this journey. However, especially if you share children, many things can change after a divorce, forcing you and your ex-spouse to re-negotiate parts of your divorce settlement. Your divorce signals the end of your marriage, but the beginning of a very important co-parenting relationship. There are many reasons that a parenting agreement may need an adjustment after your divorce is final.
Some of the most common reasons that you might need a parenting agreement modification include:
- Relocation of one parent
- Concern about your child’s wellbeing or safety
- One parent not abiding by the current parenting agreement
- Death or illness of a parent
- When the child articulates a reason for a change

Mediation is an excellent way to solve co-parenting issues after a divorce including parenting agreement modifications. Rather than giving this decision over to a judge, you and your spouse can negotiate the issues that come up with a mediator and come up with a solution that works for you and your children. Mediation costs less than litigation and takes much less time, so you arrive at a solution much more quickly, which can be better for your entire family. If mediation is not successful, then you can always decide to take the matter to court.
