⚖️ Can You Change Your Divorce Agreement After It’s Finalized?

Life doesn’t stand still after divorce. Jobs change, children grow, financial circumstances shift, and what worked when your divorce was finalized may no longer fit your situation.

But can you change the terms of your divorce agreement?

In Connecticut, certain provisions of a divorce judgment can be modified, depending on the circumstances.

Some common reasons for requesting a modification include:

🏡 Changes in Living Arrangements: A proposed relocation or changes in a child’s needs may warrant reviewing custody or parenting time arrangements.

💼 Changes in Income: A substantial change in financial circumstances, such as job loss, a significant salary change, or retirement, may justify modifying child support or eligible alimony orders.

👨‍👩‍👧 Changes in Parenting Needs: As children grow, school schedules, extracurricular activities, and other circumstances may require adjustments to existing parenting plans.

⚖️ Not Everything Can Be Changed: Property division is generally final, and some alimony provisions may be nonmodifiable.

Important: A change in circumstances doesn’t automatically change your court order. Modifications generally require court approval, and the legal requirements depend on the type of order involved.

If your divorce agreement no longer reflects your family’s circumstances, you may have legal options.

Crough Law can help you understand your rights and determine whether seeking a modification is appropriate for your situation.

🎃 Who Gets the Kids on Halloween After Divorce? 👻

Halloween is a night of costumes, candy, and childhood memories. But for divorced or separated parents, deciding who gets to take the kids trick-or-treating can sometimes be tricky.

In Connecticut, Halloween parenting time generally depends on the terms of your custody or parenting agreement. If Halloween isn’t specifically addressed, the regular parenting schedule may apply.

Here are a few ways parents can navigate the holiday:

🎃 Alternate Years: One parent celebrates Halloween with the children in even-numbered years, while the other has odd-numbered years.

🍬 Share the Fun: When practical, parents may divide the evening or arrange for both to participate in the festivities.

👻 Plan Ahead: Discuss costumes, school celebrations, trick-or-treating schedules, and transportation well before October 31.

❤️ Put the Kids First: Halloween should be about making happy memories, not navigating parental conflict.

A clear parenting plan can help prevent disagreements and make holidays more enjoyable for everyone.

Have questions about holiday parenting schedules or custody arrangements in Connecticut? Crough Law can help you understand your options.

⚖️ Connecticut Child Support Guidelines Have Changed

For the first time since 2015, Connecticut has updated its Child Support Guidelines.

Effective August 1, 2026, the new guidelines change how child support is calculated — and for many Connecticut families, the updated calculations may result in higher child support obligations.

One significant change is the expansion of the child support schedule. Previously, the guidelines covered parents with a combined net weekly income of up to $4,000. The new schedule extends that amount to $6,000 per week, bringing more higher-income families directly within the guideline calculations.

The updated schedule also increases child support amounts at many income levels, reflecting changes that have occurred since the previous guidelines were adopted in 2015.

What does this mean for you?

If you are establishing child support or considering a modification of an existing order, the new guidelines could affect the amount of support calculated in your case.

Every family’s circumstances are different, and the guideline calculation is only one part of determining an appropriate child support order.

📞 Have questions about how Connecticut’s new Child Support Guidelines may affect your family? Contact Crough Law to discuss your situation.

⚽ Who Pays for Extracurricular Activities After Divorce?

Back-to-school season often means more than pencils, backpacks, and homework. It also means soccer practice, dance lessons, music lessons, tutoring, clubs—and the expenses that come with them.

For divorced or separated parents in Connecticut, who pays isn’t always as simple as splitting the bill 50/50.

Your divorce agreement or custody orders may address how extracurricular expenses are divided, whether parents must agree before enrolling a child, and what happens when one parent wants an activity the other does not.

Before signing your child up, it can be important to ask:

Does our current agreement or court order address extracurricular expenses?

Do we need to agree on the activity before enrolling our child?

How are registration fees, equipment, uniforms, lessons, travel, and other costs divided?

Will the activity interfere with the other parent’s parenting time?

Connecticut courts have issued orders requiring parents to discuss and approve activities in advance and establishing how approved expenses will be shared, although the terms depend on the particular case.

A new school year can bring new opportunities for your children—but it can also raise new co-parenting questions.

If you have questions about extracurricular expenses, parenting time, or your existing custody orders, Crough Law can help you understand your rights and responsibilities under Connecticut family law.

🎒 Back to School, Two Households, One Goal: Supporting Your Child

A new school year brings new teachers, activities, schedules, and for co-parents, sometimes new challenges.

When children divide their time between two households, a little planning can go a long way toward creating consistency and reducing conflict.

Consider:

📚 Keep both parents informed. Make sure each parent has access to school calendars, teacher communications, report cards, and important notices.

📅 Review the parenting schedule. School transportation, extracurricular activities, holidays, and days off can quickly complicate an existing routine.

⚽ Discuss activities before committing. Sports, clubs, tutoring, and other activities may affect both parents’ parenting time, transportation responsibilities, and expenses.

🏫 Clarify school related decisions. Questions involving education, special services, or a change of school may need to be made jointly depending on your custody arrangement.

❤️ Keep children out of the middle. Whenever possible, communicate directly with your co-parent rather than relying on your child to carry messages between households.

The goal isn’t necessarily to co-parent perfectly, it’s to create as much stability and predictability as possible for your child.

If disagreements about school, parenting time, decision making, or an existing custody order have become difficult to resolve, Crough Law can help you understand your options under Connecticut family law.

🐾 Who Gets the Family Pet in a Connecticut Divorce?

For many couples, a dog or cat isn’t just a pet — they’re family. So when a marriage ends, deciding who keeps a beloved animal can become an unexpectedly emotional part of the divorce.

In Connecticut, however, pets generally do not have a separate “custody” framework like children do. Historically, companion animals have been addressed as personal property when marital assets are divided.

That doesn’t mean couples are limited to simply deciding, “You get the dog.”

When spouses are able to reach an agreement, they can negotiate terms addressing their pet’s future, including:

🐾 Who will primarily keep the pet
🐾 Whether the other spouse will have agreed-upon time with the pet
🐾 How veterinary bills and other expenses will be handled
🐾 Who will make decisions regarding the pet’s care
🐾 Whether there will be restrictions on selling or giving the pet away

The takeaway? If your pet is an important member of your family, don’t wait until the end of your divorce to think about what happens to them. Their future can, and often should, be part of the conversation.

At Crough Law, we understand that divorce isn’t only about dividing property. It’s about protecting the people, relationships, and parts of your life that matter most.
