Moving Out of State
Life is constantly changing. Careers present new opportunities out of state, and financial and emotional support systems move. When one parent decides it is in his or her best interest to relocate, that choice affects the entire family unit.
Our team at Levi Divorce & Family Law Attorneys helps residential parents obtain the court approval they need to relocate with their children. Because relocating with your child will reduce the amount of interaction your child has with his or her other parent and has the potential to erode that parent-child relationship, you must show good reason to relocate. Our attorneys know the factors courts evaluate when determining whether to approve a relocation. Working with our clients, we build a sound case for relocation that proves the relocation will benefit minor children involved.
Once relocation is approved, we work with our clients to modify custody determinations and visitation schedules to ensure children maintain relationships with both parents.
Preventing the Breakdown of Parent-Child Relationships
If your children's other parent relocated with your children without court approval, you can get a court order forcing him or her to bring your children back. We have successfully helped many clients prevent their children from being relocated to a different city, state, or country and maintain their parent-child relationship.
Even if your child's other parent has full residential custody of your child, he or she cannot simply move with the child without court approval. Our Queens relocation attorneys can help you oppose the move in court, demonstrating that a relocation would destroy your parent-child bond and not be in your child's best interests.
