Modify Child Visitation in Snohomish County
← Back to All Child Visitation Services
If you already have a parenting plan, you may be able to modify visitation (parenting time) to update the schedule, holiday rotation, exchanges, transportation, or other time-sharing details. We prepare the documents so your request is organized, consistent, and court-ready.
When a visitation modification may be appropriate
- The current schedule no longer works due to work, school, or childcare changes
- Transportation or exchange logistics need to be updated
- You need clearer holiday, summer, or break schedules
- One parent has not been following the current schedule and you need enforceable clarity
Minor vs. major parenting plan changes
Some changes are considered minor modifications (schedule and parenting time adjustments) and do not attempt to change major legal decision-making. Other situations may require a different approach. If you’re not sure what category your request fits, call and we’ll help you identify the best starting point.
Documents we prepare
- Petition or motion to change the parenting plan (as applicable)
- Declarations and supporting statements
- Proposed parenting plan with the requested schedule changes
- Service packet (if service is required in your situation)
- Temporary parenting plan motion paperwork (when needed)
What to gather before we prepare your paperwork
- A copy of your current parenting plan and any related court orders
- A written outline of the changes you want (days/times/holidays/exchanges)
- Any messages, calendars, or notes showing what has been happening
- School schedule or childcare schedule (if relevant)
