  2. Before you file a motion to modify your existing child custody agreement, there are a few factors you need to consider.

  3. The Child’s Best Interest - The courts will only consider a child custody change if it can be established that it is in the child’s best interest. 2. There’s a Waiting Period– The courts will only allow changes to a child custody agreement every two years.

  4. 3. Three Separate Filings– You must file separate modifications for child custody, decision-making responsibilities, and parenting time. 4. You and Your Ex Agree– If you and your ex are in agreement on the child custody modifications, then you can file a stipulation to ask the courts to modify your existing responsibilities.

  5. 5. You and Your Ex Do Not Agree – If you and your ex do not agree on the new modifications to your child custody, you must file a motion to modify with the courts.
