Child custody lawyer for relocation matters in Phoenix, AZ, and the surrounding areas

Guiding families through legal transitions with balanced support.

Child relocation can be a complex and emotional proceeding for either parent. The court requires either a court order to relocate the child more than 100 miles from their residence or permission from the non-moving parent. Huffman-Shayeb Law, PLLC can assist with requesting relocation, as well as advocating against the relocation of your child in Phoenix, AZ, and the surrounding areas. At Huffman-Shayeb Law, PLLC, you can partner with a child custody lawyer who has experience dealing with complicated situations involving relocation and who will advocate for you.

How can a relocation lawyer assist you?

When it comes to relocation, the court will mostly be concerned with the best interests of the child. They will consider a wide variety of factors including:

  • The current custody and visitation agreement
  • Whether the relocation is being made for a good reason
  • The distance of the relocation
  • Whether or not the relocation will negatively impact the other parent’s relationship with the child
  • Whether or not the relocation will affect the quality of life and opportunities of the child (positively or negatively)
  • Anything that will affect communication and parenting time
  • The child’s wishes

A child custody lawyer can help you prepare your case if your relocation is being contested, or if you are the one challenging the other parent’s relocation.
