Extensive Relocation Guidance
With more than 75 years of combined experience, our attorneys provide insightful guidance. We can file a petition to demonstrate the likelihood that a relocation would be permitted based on the guidelines within the child relocation law. After the petition is filed, there can be a temporary relocation hearing within 30 days, with a trial to follow within 90 days.
Our extensive experience includes representing parents seeking relocation, as well as parents who oppose relocations. We will evaluate the factors and your situation to determine the best course of action. Factors that can affect your position include:
- If the move is in the best interest of the child
- The child's preference (depending on the child's maturity level)
- How the move would affect the parental bond of the non-relocating parent
- How the move would affect the financial condition of both parents
- How the move would affect the financial condition of the child
- The emotional bond of the non-relocating parent and child
- The educational benefit of the child if relocation is permitted
- The likelihood of the non-relocating parent to foster and maintain a relationship with the child
- The likelihood of the relocating parent to find an economic enhancement by moving and the opportunities available to the other parent should he/she chose to move as well.
- The logistical realities of maintaining a parental bond after the child moves
- The basic issues of the likelihood of creating a stable, drug free and abuse free environment and the impact of the move on the child's educational and emotional needs.
It is important that you consult an experienced attorney who understands how each of these factors, and others, can influence your goals.
