When a judgment is entered in a Florida court, it is not always the end of the legal proceedings. In some cases, modifications and enforcement of the judgment may be necessary. The Miami child support law firm of Rafool, LLC, understands the complexities of post-judgment enforcement and modification and can help you seek the best possible outcome. 


When it comes to enforcement of the judgment, the Florida court can order an individual to pay the amount due according to the judgment. If the individual fails to do so, the court may issue a judgment lien against their assets, garnish their wages, or order them to appear in court to explain why they are not in compliance. Additionally, the court can order the individual to pay court costs and attorney's fees.


Modifying a judgment can be an even more complex process. A modification must be supported by a substantial change in circumstances. This could include a change in income, a job loss, or a change in the payer's ability to pay. The court will consider several factors in determining whether the proposed modification will be approved. Examples of these factors include the payer's current financial situation, the length of time since the judgment was entered, and the reasons for the modification.
