Out-of-state child custody

If a parent wants to relocate to another county, state or country, out-of-state child custody issues must be addressed and approved by the court that has jurisdiction over the children at the time.

When it comes to relocating children, custody agreements can be modified.  It is important to make sure your parental rights are protected as well as the best interests of your children.  However, keep in mind, out-of-state custody issues can be complex and requires a solid knowledge regarding jurisdictional issues.

If your former spouse is planning on moving out of the state and taking your children with him or her, it is imperative that you contact an experienced Orange County Family Law attorney who is well-versed in interstate and out-of-state child custody issues.
