Divorce Tips: My Ex Wants to Move Out of the State, What Happens to the Kids?


Listen Later

Relocation cases are not easy and often involve high emotions and conflict. While it may not be unusual for one parent to want to move out of state after the divorce is finalized, it won’t be as easy as taking the kids with you if it interferes with the other parent’s court ordered custody time. Listen in as I discuss specifically what actions you can take when, and how to navigate these circumstances.

Show notes:

I won’t sugar coat it (and you probably know by now, anyway) but relocation on top of divorce is hard, and it’s something I deal with daily in my firm.  

What can you do if you’re in this situation? I recommend starting with talking it out with your ex. If you’re not on speaking terms and dealing with a high conflict personality, then it’s time to lawyer up; without an agreement, you’ll need to go to court. While the court may be understanding of the various reasons someone would relocate, they must evaluate many factors before deciding; such as how the move will impact the child’s stability, education, social life, etc. 

Every state has different statutes around this, so I cannot stress enough that you meet with a knowledgeable attorney as soon as possible.
