Relocation of a Parent

Parent Relocation Attorney

A primary custodian of a child who wishes to relocate to another state or country, taking the child along, cannot simply do so at will. An attorney can assist either the parent who wishes to move, or the other parent, who may not want the child to be farther away.

Serving clients throughout Westchester County, New York, our White Plains firm handles relocation issues for parents from diverse cultures and social and economic backgrounds. Utilizing her extensive travel experience and conversational Spanish, attorney Joy Y. Frank will help you understand your rights and obligations in relocation. She can assist clients wishing to relocate throughout the U.S. and internationally. Contact our office today to discuss your specific situation and needs.

If you are hoping to move by a certain date, it is important that you get in touch with an attorney as soon as possible. This may take months, so start the process immediately.

If the other parent of your child is seeking to relocate, we can help resist the move. Though the process may take some time, asserting your rights to custody as soon as possible may block the relocation from taking place.
