Move Away in Fairfield, Hayward, and San Jose

When one parent, typically the one with primary physical custody, wants to relocate their child to a new home outside of their present city, county, state, or nation, this is referred to as a move-away or relocation case. Regardless of how far away the relocation is supposed to be, move-away lawsuits are among the most complicated in family law. Without the assistance of a knowledgeable move-away attorney, you shouldn’t take on a move-away lawsuit.

A parent who has primary physical custody of their child is allowed to move the child’s address under California Family Code. You cannot, however, move your child’s domicile without the other parent’s consent or a court order. The California Supreme Court has granted family court judges broad power to reject move-away motions if doing so would jeopardize the rights or welfare of the kid. Whether you are a non-custodial parent attempting to stop a move-away order or a custodial parent attempting to relocate with your child, you will need a professional attorney to go in this kind of process.
