Legal Question in Family Law in Wyoming

amending divorce papers

Remembering that I am not licensed to practice law in your state, you start out with the statement that you do not want to amend child support.... However you go on to state you want to change financial matters regarding your child. These are inconsistent statements. The only financial matters that can be changed are dealing with child support and related isues such as medical insurance, expenses, day care, educational expenses. Any property settlement terms are usually not modifiable. You should consult with an attorney in your state and provide nmore specifics about what you want changed

A material change of circumstances in Wyomingmeans, in simple terms, that a judge thinksthings have really changed. A material changeof circumstances cannot be voluntarily imposed.For purposes of child support, there is a set percentage of change in support which constituesa material change in circumstances.

Of course, my response is limitedby the scope of your query, and things may varydepending on the facts of your case.
