A Child custody order can be modified but there are some basic requirements you would need to establish for a modification. For instance, when was the last modification? Has there been a substantial change in circumstances since the entry of the most recent order? etc. As you can see, an attorney would need more information from you and would also need to review your existing child custody order. There are many attorneys in metro Atlanta providing free legal consultations.
