Relocating
A
WORD ABOUT RELOCATIONS, NOT YOUR
AVERAGE LAWYER
I have lived a blessed life. I
grew up overseas in East and West Africa, lived for one month
with the Maasai tribe in Loita, Kenya where I survived on a diet
of blood and goat chunks (not recommended!). I lived in
communist Poland and love snow. I enjoy dog sledding, ice
skating, ice climbing, ice… my unique perspective and background
have enabled me to counsel clients from different cultures,
locales and sensibilities. My practice is not limited to
Maricopa County or even to Anthem although I have many clients
who hail from those areas. I represent clients from all over the
valley and the country. I have done numerous cases that involve
relocation and foreign jurisdictions. I have successfully
relocated clients to Australia, New Zealand and across different
states.
Relocations are not automatic and
sometimes involve heated and expensive litigation. A parent who has
primary legal custody of the minor child cannot
move outside a 35 mile radius without the other parent’s permission
(that’s the equivalent of Surprise to Anthem!). A job transfer may not
be enough of a reason to trigger relocation. If the parties agree
and/or the court allows the transfer, this will necessitate a revised
long distance parenting plan. If you find
yourself in this situation call DROBAN & COMPANY,PC
for a consultation.
