You can change certain aspects of your divorce decree after it has been finalized. For instance, the judge may modify the child custody order or spousal support amount and duration.
However, it’s almost impossible to alter property division decisions. You can change a divorce decree in two ways - by appealing and submitting modification requests. Both methods require justification in support of your position.
In addition, some types of divorce, such as simplified dissolutions, are exempt from appealing and alteration.
