God sent Danielle M. Ostrovsky “Danielle was a beacon of hope to me at a time when my options appeared limited. I thought the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed nigh on impossible because it appeared that a lot of time, men get the short end of the stick. Not only was she able to defend me from an unjust divorce after my motorcycle accident, where it appeared that I wouldn’t fully recover. She stood in the gap and fought for me. As a result, I was granted equal shared custody of my son. She was a beast in the courtroom, yet her calm and empathetic demeanor outside offered emotional succor to myself and those I care about most. I am eternally grateful for her service, and I hereby recommend Mrs. Ostrovsky without reservation.

Yes, child support can always be modified in Florida, so long as certain factors exist and are alleged in the modification action. In order to modify child support, there must be a substantial change in circumstances since the original court order or agreement was entered, such as a change in income of one of the parents.
Alimony can be modified in amount and sometimes duration in certain circumstances depending on the type of alimony that was awarded. However, if a Marital Settlement Agreement was signed by the parties and it expressly states that alimony is non-modifiable, then alimony cannot be modified.
