Re: Settling outside of court

You can't "avoid" the order, but you can agree to modify its terms by having another order issued. That can be accomplished by settlement in one form or another.

These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.

If you need more information, you can visit my family law blog (www.SCFamilyLaw.com) or our website (www.StevensFirm.com). I wish you the best of luck.
