Child Relocations

Akron Child Relocation Attorney

At Randal A. Lowry & Associates we recognize and understand that your children are the top priority in your case and the possibility of losing regular contact is devastating.

At Randal A. Lowry & Associates, we have extensive experience in cases involving proposed child relocations. These have included representation of parents with primary custody seeking to relocate as well as those seeking to prevent a move away. We are knowledgeable, skilled and determined to protect our clients' rights.

Call us toll free at 877-264-7931 or send an e-mail to schedule a consultation.

If your former spouse is seeking to relocate with your children, our firm can seek to obtain an emergency order preventing the move, pending a full review by the court.

Using the Law and the Facts to Protect Your Rights

Regarding a proposed child relocation, the law itself only requires that sufficient notice be given to the non-relocating parent and that there be legitimate reasons for the move. Beyond that, courts decide child relocation cases in favor of the "best interest of the child", as with all child custody matters. The court then decides these cases based on the specific facts of the case.

Our firm will undertake a comprehensive review of these facts in building your case. If necessary, we can hire additional resources, such as a private investigator or child psychologist who can support your position. We will aggressively represent you at all stages of the legal process.

Negotiation or Litigation?

In some cases, it may be possible to negotiate an acceptable solution. Usually, these involve granting the non-relocating parent additional time with the child during holiday periods or in the summer months.

Usually, though, it is necessary to undertake litigation to achieve court approval of a move or to prevent it. Randal A. Lowry & Associates will work aggressively to achieve your goals and protect your rights.
