My ex-husband and I have shared custody. Due to the war, he was drafted for reserve service and is hardly at home. Consequently, our 10-year-old son is living at my place all of the time. Can I ask the court to increase his monthly maintenance payments?

Yes! This is a notable change in circumstances, which justifies compensation as ruled by the Hadera Family Court in Hadera on January 8th 2025. The Court there found that considering the time that the child spends with the mother’ the length of the reserve service by the father, the age of the minor, and the change of circumstances that the father will add and pay to the mother for the child 500 NIS for every month of reserve service where no visitation of the father with the minor takes place.
