Out of State Child Custody Attorney Attorney in Williamsville, NY

Out of State Child Custody Attorney Overview

Through any child custody case we want to establish and seek a fair agreement between parties. Usually, a court will rule to establish joint or shared custody, considering a dual-parent decision-making process better than one usually. However, the court might grant an out-of-state move with the custodial parent if it can be shown such a move will be in the child's best interests.

Relocation and Divorce Decree Modifications Are Modern Realities

Facing possible relocation of your children is never an easy issue. It is difficult to accept the reasons your ex-spouse has for relocation and how it will affect your relationship with your child. Conversely, establishing the reason for relocation as the custodial parent can prove especially difficult.

Keith B. Schulefand, Esq., is a Williamsville, New York-based out-of-state child custody attorney with experience throughout the state of New York. Our law firm frequently protects parental rights in cases of military and high net worth divorce cases. They typically have the highest rate of needs when moving from base to base or job to job, but we represent both the custodial and non-custodial parent position for many different circumstances.

Difficult Situations Require Creative Solutions for Both Parties

If an out-of-state move presents significant financial gain to the custodial parent or a child's long-term health and well-being will benefit from relocation, the move has a better chance of success. The child's best interests are paramount, provided the move does not affect the other parent's access adversely.

However, parents who move or travel frequently because of occupation, still have the right to equal access to their children. You should not be penalized for a legitimate, mobile lifestyle.
