You and your former spouse are not the only people affected by your divorce. We help clients in Hollywood and Coral Springs consider the effect of their actions on their children. Even though your rights and obligations as a spouse are coming to an end, your role as a parent continues. The decisions you make will have a serious impact on your children, so it is important to make sure you consider what is best for them.

The state of Florida has taken action to make sure that parents don't move at the expense of their children. Your kids have the right to develop a meaningful relationship with both their parents, and you do not have the right to take that away from them unless you are granted permission by the court. While parental relocation is possible, there has to be a substantial reason for a move-away that will affect your child custody and visitation plan.

  • Marriage: If you have been remarried and your spouse got a new job in a new location, the court understands the extenuating circumstances. We can help you work out a visitation and support modification to make your relocation possible.
  • Money: After your divorce, you may no longer be able to afford to live in the same place. Not everyone is able to maintain the same lifestyle for themselves and their children after a divorce. If you are considering a move to live with your parents in another state, we can help.
  • Career: Have you been offered a better job or a promotion in a new city or state? The state of Florida wants you to make the best possible decisions for your children. If you will be able to support them better after your parental relocation, you may be approved.

The state will consider the smallest details when it comes to your proposal for a child custody move-away. Everything from your children's school district to their actual home will be considered. In the end, the judge you see in court will have the final say as to your proposed parental relocation. We can answer your questions about your proposal and help you come up with a plan that works.

If the visiting parent is not taking advantage of their parental visits and is not making timely child support payments, you will have a stronger case for relocation.
