Orange County Attorney for Relocation Cases

How an Orange County Divorce Attorney Could Help You

When a former spouse from a marriage involving children is considering moving to another location, there are important custody and visitation matters that must be attended to.  A court order regarding child custody or visitation is taken seriously by family law judges.  Courts find it very important to create as stable and beneficial a family life for a child whose parents have divorced or legally separated.  When one parent wants to move to another city, state or country, legal channels must be followed in regards to modification of current custody agreements.  An Orange County divorce attorney may be able to provide you with the legal solutions you need in such a case.

Relocation cases can be almost as emotionally stressful and complex as a divorce sometimes.  There are many reasons why a move may need to take place and it all needs to be carefully sorted out while keeping the best interests of the child or children in mind.  Remarriage, a new job opportunity, better schools, and a host of other personal and financial reasons may come into play requiring modification of custody or visitation.  Additional distance between parents due to relocation can put a strain on the relationship a parent has with their children.  A judge will have to take all circumstances into account before granting or denying a relocation request.  It is crucial to have strong representation in such matters to ensure your parental rights are upheld.
