Beverly Hills Child Relocation Attorney

Doing What Is Best for Your Child

Following a divorce, many people choose to move away. Whether they are moving away to be closer to family, moving to a place they can better afford, or moving because of a new job opportunity, their children’s best interests are the main focus of a judge. When parents go through a divorce, a custody agreement must be reached to decide where your child will live and what each parent’s visitation schedule will be.

How Will the Judge Determine Custody?

In a relocation case where one parent would like to move away with their child, a judge might decide to hold a hearing to determine if a change in custody is necessary. When deciding whether or not to alter an existing custody agreement, the judge will consider many factors. The judge will only consent to a move if they feel that it is in the best interest of the child and that it will have a positive impact on their well-being.

Factors that a judge considers in a relocation hearing include:

• The distance of the proposed move
• The relationship the child has with the moving parent
• The reason given by the parent for the move
• The way in which the moving parent plans to meet the child’s emotional and physical needs
• The potential consequences of disrupting the child’s life
