order can be modified in Massachusetts

two ways one is if there has been a

material change in circumstance either

the paying party uh has experienced an

increase or decrease a significant

increase or decrease in their income or

the receiving party has experienced a

significant change in circumstances

again usually typically it has to do

with the income the other way that a

child support order can be modified in

Massachusetts Massachusetts pursuant to

case law is If the child support

guidelines have changed and the change

in guidelines results in a meaningful

difference in the prior child support

order in other words

perhaps both parties still have the same

income but under the new guidelines the

child support obligation is meaningfully

different so under those circumstances

you could seek a modification of child

support as well
