Post-Divorce Modification Attorney in Angleton, Texas
When a judge issues a divorce decree, he or she will also issue orders regarding such matters as child custody, visitation rights, child support and alimony. While these orders are commonly referred to as being "final," the reality is much different. When a significant change in circumstances occurs, it is possible to go to court to obtain a modification in an order.
At Scott M. Brown, P.C., we frequently obtain modifications for our clients. In many cases, these are routine and we can get them in an efficient and cost-effective manner. Some cases, however, do require significant legal efforts to secure the changes sought by our clients.
We represent people in matters involving:
- Modifications in child support
- Modifications in custody and visitation
- Modifications in spousal support (alimony)
- Enforcement of support, custody and visitation orders
- Modifications in protective orders

Modifying Child Support
In Texas, the child support level is based on the incomes of the parents, the number of nights a child spends with each parent in a year, the needs of the child and other factors. When a change occurs, we can go to court to seek a modification in child support. When the parents are payroll workers, such modifications are usually not difficult to obtain.
Our firm can represent you in more challenging cases, such as when a parent is self-employed, intentionally working at a job beneath his or her capabilities or is attempting to hide income.
At Scott M. Brown, P.C., we represent both payers and receivers of child support.
Child Custody and Visitation
When both parties are in general agreement about a child custody or visitation matter, our firm can usually negotiate a modification quickly and efficiently.
Other cases can be highly contentious, such as those involving proposed child relocations or alleged abuse. The attorneys at Scott M. Brown, P.C., are strong advocates for our clients. If necessary, we will energetically conduct litigation to achieve your goals and protect your rights.
Enforcement of Orders
Failure to pay child support or comply with a custody or visitation order is a serious matter in Texas. Our firm represents parents on both sides of these issues in enforcement hearings. We can present evidence in your favor, contest the allegations of the other parent and work to achieve your goals.
