Return to Divorce / Family Law

Many times a party may erroneously assume that they can just take the child and “relocate”. However, the law generally requires the other parent to either provide written consent or require the relocating parent to procure a Court Order authorizing the out-of-state relocation, and sometimes-intrastate relocation. Garces & Grabler, PC can advise you as to what is legally required to acceptably relocate a child of a relationship. Such advice could assist in reducing legal fees that often occur when parties do not communicate effectively. Since lawyers usually charge hundreds of dollars per hour, a few key words of practical advice can assist a party in effectively communicating with their ex-significant other. This, in turn, can have the added effect of reducing legal fees in a substantial matter. Nevertheless, sometimes parties do not come to agreement. Garces & Grabler, PC is also capable of zealously representing parties when there is a good faith dispute as to the viability of a relocation application.
