How can I file a payment reduction or increase?

Florida law states that child support can be reduced or increased if a substantial change has occurred. This change may occur by either the respondent or the petitioner. A hearing must be held and an order obtained for a modification. All pleadings must be filed in accordance with the Florida Family Law Rules of Procedure.
