RELOCATION​

In certain situations a parent may want to move a considerable distance with the child and away from the other parent. Reasons for a relocation often involve job opportunities, to be closer to family, or other extenuating circumstances.

If you are a parent thinking of relocating with your child, it is important that you obtain specific and detailed legal advice before you move, as the failure to meet certain procedural requirements before the relocation could result in a change in your parenting rights and other party obtaining a recovery order from the court for your child to be recovered.

Alternatively, if you are a noncustodial parent who is faced with the relocation of your child, it is crucial that you seek immediate legal representation. Time will be of the essence in order to secure and protect your parenting rights.
