Do I Need A Court Order To Take Custody Of One Of My Two Children In Queens, At My Ex’s Request?

January 27, 2015 by Marc Jacob

When you take actions outside of your custody agreement, even when you and your former spouse are in perfect agreement, it’s important to make sure that the new terms are ratified by court order.

Failure to do so can lead to problems down the road. When you take custody of one of your children in Queens, petition for a modification of your custody agreement to protect yourself and your child from future conflict.

You may also be able to reduce your child support payments if you take custody of one of your children.

This is a separate matter that will be heard independently, but when the circumstances of your custody arrangements change, it can impact what you’re paying in support.
