What Happens If A Parent Relocates?
Relocation of a child, either outside a certain radius from your current address in New Jersey or outside the state, is a difficult decision for a parent. It is also an issue that arises frequently during or after a divorce. One parent may seek to move away with a child due to job demands or other reasons. The other parent may claim that the move is only for the convenience of the relocating parent, designed to adversely impact the parenting rights of the objecting parent, or the move will not serve the best interests of the child in some other way. We will fight hard to ensure that our clients do not lose precious time with their children. We protect the rights of our client, as well as the best interests of their children.
