Legal Question in Family Law in Washington

Re: Modifying a Parenting Plan

It depends on what court you are in. Some courts will reward you for the agreement by allowing you to do it without going through the whole modification process - the summons and petition, the personal service, the adequate cause hearing, the trial.

The shortcut is a pleading you could entitle something like, "Agreed Modification of Parenting Plan, Final Order" and then you both sign it, and both represent that this is in the child's best interest.

Will your court let you do this the simple way? I don't even have a zip code to place you with, so I don't know.

Hope this helps, though. Powell
