Stamford Child Relocation Lawyers


Child and Parent Relocation
Parental and child relocation adds tremendous complications to divorce. Even if the parent moving is the non-custodial parent, an entire new parenting plan needs to be drafted and agreed upon between the parties and the court. And of course matters become even further complicated if any of the children are relocating with the parent.
We have experience with parent and child relocation. At the Stamford, Connecticut, law firm of Prince and Cotler, our attorneys understand how difficult it is to re-work these parenting plans. We also know the challenge for children as they are getting older, watching their divorced parents work out these difficult decisions. We work quickly, efficiently, and professionally to help you secure the post-divorce modification needed for you to follow your career or personal goals that require you to move out of state. And for the parent opposing the other parent's move away and any related modifications to the divorce order, we offer the same years of experience and commitment to helping you.
We Can Make it Work for Your Situation
Every divorce with children involves a parenting plan — a plan articulating the details of:
- Visitation
- Custody
- Travel expenses
- Holidays and vacations
- Children's extracurricular activities
- College
All of these factors of a parenting plan, no matter how carefully considered at the time of inception, need to be altered if one of the parents need to move. We have helped make parenting plans work for ex-spouses living across the street from each other, or across the country. Every parenting plan looks different, but it is important to know that relocation does not have to be detrimental to the child. It is even possible to have shared custody even if you live in different states.
Life changes; career or personal opportunities often lead people to relocate. We can help you make the personal and professional moves you need to make, while maintaining a parenting plan that can work for everyone. Contact us for a free initial consultation with a lawyer.
