Child Relocation The Right Attorney Makes All The Difference

Virginia Beach Child Relocation Attorneys

Committed to Helping You Relocate with Your Child

Life is constantly changing and, if you are no longer with your co-parent and wish to relocate with your child, you are free to leave to state. However, until you have resided in the new state for the time it takes to establish residency, Virginia will continue to be your primary residence. Therefore, if your co-parent disagrees with the relocation, they may file for custody, ultimately forcing you and your child to reside in Virginia.

At The Law Offices of Daniel J. Miller in Virginia Beach, our experienced legal team can assist you with this process. Whether you are trying to relocate with your child or you are trying to keep your child in the state, you can rely on us to help you.

Relocating with Your Child

If you and your ex are in disagreement regarding your relocation with the children, matters can get a little complicated, which is why legal representation is essential. As is the case with any child custody case, whether or not a judge grants a proposed relocation depends on the child’s best interests.

Below is a list of factors a judge will consider:

  • The age of the child
  • The physical and mental condition of the child
  • The needs of the child
  • Each parent’s relationship with the child
  • The preference of the child (if the child is mature enough)
  • The role each parent had and will continue to play in raising the child
  • The willingness of each parent to help facilitate one another’s relationship with the child
  • A history of abuse
  • Other factors the court believes may be pertinent to rendering a decision

If the court does not believe the proposed relocation serves the best interests of the child, you will have to bring your child back to the state if you already relocated. Moreover, the terms of your child custody agreement may change.

    “I would highly recommend him to anyone!”

    Call Dan Miller now - you need look no further for the best divorce attorney in Hampton Roads. Divorce is not an easy situation but it is even worse if you do not have good representation.

    I was in the midst of a divorce and my case was with a firm that was not representing me fairly and not answering my questions. I was at a loss and dreaded going to court. Then a friend told me of Dan Miller. I wish I had found this firm in the beginning! From the first hour of turning my case over to this office I stopped worrying. I knew I had made the right choice and my case was in good hands. Dan Miller was professional, and he fought for me and I was very happy with the way he handled my case. I would highly recommend him to anyone!

    “I am forever grateful and will highly recommend him . Mr. Miller”
    I hired Mr. Miller initially for a bond hearing . I decided to retain his services for the case itself . I was facing two felony charges as well as a failure to appear charge . While there were witnesses that were able to identify me, I walked out of Virginia Beach Courthouse with only a misdemeanor thanks to Mr. Miller's representation . I work in the healthcare profession and expressed to Mr. Miller the importance of avoiding a felony charge and he made it happen. I am forever grateful and will highly recommend him . Mr. Miller will always represent myself as well as family members if need be in the future . Again thank you Mr. Miller for using your knowledge to keep me from being a convicted felon and also saving my career.

I can't say enough how grateful I am for all your hard work and fight that you did behind the scenes. God bless you Mr. Miller and your whole team.
