Modifications of Orders or Judgments in South Bay Family Court
Need to Get Your Divorce, Support, or Custody Orders Updated?
Circumstances change, and court orders that once fit your family's needs
may no longer suffice. Has your ex-wife or ex-husband received a steep
pay raise? Does your child want to spend less time with your ex and more
time with you? Are you paying expensive medical bills for an injury your
child suffered? Situations like these can serve as grounds for modifying the
child custody,
child support, or
alimony terms laid out in the original court orders received following your divorce.
If someone affected by your court orders has experienced a significant
life change and you believe that it is time to modify the terms of the
original decree, contact a Torrance divorce lawyer who can help you assess
your options and the possibilities available to you. Colleen & Patricia
Barberis have 70 years of combined experience helping men and women arrive
at satisfactory resolutions following a marriage dissolution. We are prepared
to serve as your best advocate no matter how complex the situation you
face may be.
Some cases may require
emergency or ex parte proceedings - such as if you have reason to believe that your child's health or safety
is in danger living with your ex-wife or ex-husband. We can help you address
immediate needs and work with you to ensure your safety and the safety
of your loved ones. In the event of a less urgent situation, it is important
that you make the time to seek out legal counsel so that you are aware
of all your options and the repercussions of a decision before deciding
on the course of action that is right for you.

I couldn't have chosen a better law team to represent my family and me. Everyone in the office treats us with love and care, ensuring that I understand everything that is happening. You are a wonderful, loyal person, and you are also an excellent, caring, and highly professional lawyer. Words cannot express how grateful I am for all you have done. I did not want the day to pass without thanking you again for your work today.

“I thank them for their excellence”
Pat, Colleen, and the team helped me through a very difficult custody issue many years ago, so I called them again when I needed to divorce. I thank them for their excellence, efficiency, and a successful settlement!

“Colleen was by my side”
Divorce can be very difficult, expensive and stressful. You need someone to talk to that could lead you in the right direction when you’re ready. Colleen was the right person to do that. She and Pat Barberis are the team that made me feel protected when I was the most vulnerable early in the divorce process. They were patient with me and Colleen was by my side in court when I really needed in person representation before the court.

“I would strongly recommend Pat”
Pat helped me with my divorce, which was a difficult time for me. She was fantastic, helping me through the whole process. She worked very hard to ensure it was as positive an outcome for me as possible.
When I turned to her for some legal advice just recently, several years after my divorce, I was able to set up a consultation with her that same day. She worked through the situation with me, understanding it and providing me with options that could be pursued, and giving me very solid advice. I would never hesitate to engage her again if the need arose. I would strongly recommend Pat for any family law needs you might have.

“Thank you so much”
Pat did a phenomenal job throughout my high conflict divorce. She will communicate all your options to you, she will advocate for you and fight for you, and she is so knowledgeable--her amount of expertise will put your mind at ease. She would be so prompt with all communications that if I ever had a question she would even respond to me after hours or on the weekends if needed (which I was super impressed with and it was much appreciated). Her team (which includes Colleen Barberis) and all of the office staff were incredible throughout the divorce and I will be forever grateful to them for getting me to the finish line with this divorce. I walked away with an incredible settlement and had a great outcome because of all their hard work. Thank you so much Pat, Colleen, and office staff!!

“They are wonderful people and are extremely knowledgeable.”
I have had the best representation and experience with the law team of Patricia Barberis. I have had the pleasure of using them twice. They do a great job. Patricia Colleen and everyone in the office is super helpful and very talented in what they do. Their understanding of family law is amazing. Patricia and her team were very kind and patient with me in difficult times and circumstances. The last one was during the Pandemic late last year and they did an A+ job. Patricia’s guidance was super helpful and her paralegal Nancy did a fantastic job too. I highly recommend Patricia Barberis Law Firm for all family law matters. They are wonderful people and are extremely knowledgeable.
