Description

The Motion to Modify Divorce Decree is a legal form utilized in Georgia to request changes to existing child-support payments outlined in a previously filed divorce decree. This form allows the petitioner to formally apply for an increase in child-support payments, demonstrating that there has been a significant change in circumstances warranting this request. Key features of the form include spaces for the names of the court, parties involved, case number, and the details of the proposed increased payment per child. It also requires an affidavit to support the petition, highlighting the changed circumstances since the original decree was issued. Filling instructions are straightforward: users must provide accurate information regarding the case details and ensure the affidavit is attached. There is also a section for the attorney representing the petitioner, which includes contact information. The certificate of service confirms that a copy of the motion has been sent to the opposing counsel, ensuring adherence to legal protocols. This form is particularly useful for attorneys, partners, owners, associates, paralegals, and legal assistants involved in family law cases in Georgia, as it enables them to effectively modify support agreements based on evolving family situations. It reflects the ongoing responsibilities of parents and emphasizes the importance of upholding the best interests of the child.
