"You have a divorce decree and now something has changed. And you want to change it. Hi, I'm Robert Todd and I'm here to answer the question. How do I amend a divorce decree? Well, first of all this is going to depend on which state you're in. It varies from state to state. But perhaps the most general answer for that is. If your spouse agrees to the change that you desire to amend the divorce decree. You put together a document known as a modification agreement. And you petition the court with this modification agreement. And you ask that the court inner judgement. Specifically, approving this modification agreement. And thereby amending the divorce decree. If your spouse doesn't agree to it, then you'd have to file a petition for modification. And put on evidence, as to why the court should amend that decree. I'm Robert Todd and thank you for watching."
