At the Mansouri Law Offices in Beverly Hills, California, we regularly represent parents who are seeking to relocate with their child to another state or country for reasons that include remarriage, the desire to be closer to family and the support that they can provide, attendance at a professional post secondary school or the need to move because of economic reasons.
Some people are under the misconception that they only have to give their former spouse 30 days notice that they are moving away with a child. Not true.

Challenges of Relocation
The challenge that divorced parents experience when they seek to move away from the other biological parent is that the other parent can legally challenge the relocation of the child. Then the matter must be resolved in a court of law. And even though the custodial parent's request is given more weight, it is the judge who makes the final decision.
Best Interests of the Child Standard
The standard that a judge looks at in a move away matter is the same standard that is used to determine custody: What is in the best interests of the child?
At the Mansouri Law Offices, in Beverly Hills, California, we have been successful in both obtaining and defending against move aways involving children, including situations in which the custodial parent was allowed to move out of the country to be near family.
Move away matters can be difficult in the best of situations, because most parents want access to their children. Resolving a move away matter can be emotionally draining, costly and time-consuming.
Experienced, Professional and Persuasive
Pedram Mansouri knows that many of these cases are decided on the basis of the argument that the lawyer presents, including the written briefs that the judge reads prior to the actual court date. As a former associate editor of his law school journal, he has an excellent ability to tell a compelling story on paper, presenting the facts in a persuasive manner that may help his client's cause.
