If circumstances have changed since the agreement than it may warrant a plea to change custody.
Contact your attorney.

You can file a motion to modify parental rights(custody) etc at your leisure. Your lawyer will advise you on what you would like to do and what your chances are. Both parents have equal rights to parent the child. Certain circumstances like how close you live to each other affect weather Shared parenting is granted. It often requires an agreement between the two of you which outlines a detailed parenting plan, visitation, etc. If you can't agree on things than there is no point in doing it. Disagreements ending up in court will result in the judge awarding legal custody to one parent. Only this parent can make decisions regarding the child(religion, school, etc). Most states require that one person has to be awarded physical custody. The other parent gets visitation.
You will also need a good sum of money to get through a full custody battle(unless of course your ex is agreeable to a shared parenting plan). If a guardian ad litem is assigned to your child, you have to pay that hourly fee too.

Hi and Good morning...Yes...you can get your divorce revised but it all depends on the circumstances of the divorce. Some divorces can't be revised within a certain time limit so I'm not too sure when you had your divorce finalized. One can change the child support and in some cases if the primary guardian is found at fault in contempt or guilty in abuse or another crime that can harm the children then the divorce can be revised immediately or an emergency hearing can take place. I'm sorry I can't be more specific but each case is different and it all depends on the time-line. Good luck and have a great day!

Sure you can do anything you want if you like to waste your money. The best way is to butter up the ex and work it out between you.
But then if that was possible you probably wouldn't be divorced in the first place.
Bet you could bribe the ex with less loot than an attorney would charge and with better results.

yes you can, you dont tell anything else what is what,
there is custody and there is custodial or physical custody which is different than custody,one is where the kids spend the majority of their time,
the other is for tax purposes and if one spouse or ex in this case dies,

It depends on the circumstances...
If the ex is willing...you can change anything that the two of you can agree on.
If the ex is not willing...there will have to be extreme circumstances where you will need to prove that she is unfit to have the full time (i.e. she's an alcoholic, abusive, etc.)

Revisions are allowed I believe once a year. The circumstance has to be different than when it was ruled on.

Yeap, you can always appeal the courts when it comes to custody of your child.
