Are Divorce Decrees Really Final?
Divorce decrees are final; the court rulings concerning issues dealt with in the divorce proceeding cannot be re-decided except, and with time restrictions, when errors of law occurred during your divorce proceedings.

This does not mean, however, that divorce decrees cannot be modified – New Mexico divorce decrees can be modified, but only if there is a significant change in the circumstances of the parties. If you believe that you need to modify your New Mexico divorce decree or are a New Mexico resident involved in an out-of-state divorce decree modification you can contact Don Harris through this website or directly.
