Can a Parent Who Has Physical Custody of a Child Move Out-of-state?A parent with physical child custody may relocate to another state or even another country. However, they must inform the other parent of their intention to move and any modifications to a custody agreement or a child support agreement must be approved by the court. Failure to follow the law can have serious consequences. We help both parents who are wishing to relocate and parents whose custody arrangements may be impacted by a move.

I Am Not Receiving Court-ordered Child Support Payments. What Can I Do?If your child’s parent is failing to pay child support, we can help pursue an enforcement action. This may require little more than a sternly-worded reminder of the parent’s legal obligations. It may also involve additional steps to be taken, including wage garnishment or seeking to hold the parent in contempt of court. We can help explore your options and determine the best path forward for your situation.

I Know That the “best Interests” of the Child Is How a Court Decides Custody. What Does That Mean?There is no set definition for this term. Each child custody situation is resolved on a case-by-case basis. Every case is different with varying factors which must be reviewed to determine the best resolution in terms of both parents and the child. Florida courts strongly favor a continuing relationship with both parents for the child unless there is a valid reason factor against it, such as a parent with a history of domestic violence.
