Legal Question in Family Law in Massachusetts
Do lawyers generally ask for interogtories and production of documents for a modification?

It depends on the case, but it would not be unusual in the least for a party to send out interrogatories and requests for production of documents. I strongly recommend that you retain counsel if you are considering sending these out, or if you are tasked with answering them. Feel free to contact us and speak with one of our family law attorneys, Jessica Walsh, at 617-357-4898. Good luck!
It is common to send out interrogatories and requests for production of documents for a modification action. Other methods of discovery allowed by the Massachusetts Rules of Domestic Relations Procedure such as requests for admissions and depositions are also often used during modifications. If interrogatories and requests for production have been sent to you, I strongly encourage you to seek advice of counsel to assist you with responding.
