Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona

In order to be helpful, it would be necessary for me to review your divorce decree. When a divorce decree does not include critical provisions, Arizona law is the default provision. Sometimes it may be necessary to modify the decree to prevent relocation. If Arizona is the child's home state, it may be necessary to Petition the Court to prevent the relocation if that is in the best interest of the child. Arizona Law requires a statutory time period that each parent must notify the other regarding an intent to relocate the child. If you would like us to review your divorce decree and help you put a strategy in place to prevent the relocation, I suggest that you call Stephanie Coulter at 602 462 1004 to make arrangements for us to review your divorce decree so that we can provide you with a strategy to resolve the problem.

Do you have regular Parenting Time? ARIZONA HAS A RELOCATION STATUTE which you could use to resist her relocation. Time may be of the essence, so see us quickly. We can certainly help you consider and then pursue your options. This is obviously a very important matter, and you should not go in alone.
