Why Would You Move Away from a Child's Parent?
People relocate for many reasons:
- Receiving a better job offer out of state may require a parent to move
- Enrolling in an education program out of state requires a parent to move
- Remarrying and moving to another state requires relocation
- Accessing support from family members may require a move
Focus on the Best Interest of the Child
At the Law Office of Marie I. Braun, we have successfully assisted a number of clients in move away legal matters.
We help parents ask the hard questions:
- Will the child be harmed by not seeing the other parent regularly?
- How actively involved is the parent in the child's life?
- Who picks up and drops off the children at school, doctor appointments, sports activities and the like?
- What arrangement will allow the non-custodial parent to see the relocated child as often as before?
- What creative solution will continue to foster a strong role for both parents in the child's life?
- Will there be communication matters that are difficult to overcome if the matter comes to litigation?
As a lawyer focused on family law matters, Ms. Braun is skilled at mapping out innovative solutions that are acceptable to courts in Southern California and to all of the involved parties in a move away situation. She will help you understand the long-term consequences of a move away and support you throughout the court modification process.
