Child relocation

For separated parents, life decisions moving forward can be complex and difficult particularly if one parent wants to move away.

If you are facing this situation, where do you stand legally? Does your ex-partner have the right to stop you? Is there a limit to how far you can move away, or even a limit to whether you can move at all?

In this short video, Family Lawyer, Matthew Taylor at Stowe explains if you need your ex-partner’s permission to relocate with your children, what happens if you cannot agree on the relocation, the role of the family court, what you can do if you have concerns your ex-partner wants to relocate, and how a family lawyer can help. 

We can help you understand if you are able to move away with your children. Or, support you if you need advice on preventing your partner moving away with your child.
