How the Courts Look at Parental Relocation Cases
Our experience means that we understand what the courts look for when considering a parental relocation request. In determining whether the move is in the best interest of the child, the court asks:
- Is the move a necessity for the child's health?
- Will the move enable the parent to obtain a higher income and better the child's economic situation? Is the move an economic necessity?
- What is the quality of the child's relationship with each parent and how will the move affect these relationships?
We will work with you to have answers to these questions ready and a strategy for success in place.
