As discussed in previous blog entries, Missouri has a law
for relocation after a divorce when you have children that are still living
under the parenting plan that was created during the initial proceeding. For a
smooth transition to a new parenting plan, it is imperative that a parent
planning to move understand the requirements under the statute. Not only can insufficient
notice cause you to lose some of the custody rights that you previously
enjoyed, but it can also cause your move to become practically speaking very
difficult. Many times when parents are planning a move, it is centered
around a big life event. For instance, many parents remarry and move in with
their new spouse. Sometimes parents move for better career opportunities,
usually with a specific new job waiting for them with a set start date. A move
is no small event for most people. It can require timing of shipments of your
personal belongings, purchasing airplane tickets, selling your previous
residence, storing personal belongings, enrollment of a child in school along
with a myriad of other factors. As soon as you know that you want to move, you should
consult an attorney. An attorney will be able to attack custody and support
issues head-on and make the transition process as smooth as possible. If you
plan your move with your child before consulting an attorney, you risk
mistiming your moving and multiplying your moving expenses in order to
entertain a custody battle. An attorney can help you with strategies to comply
with the law as well as aid you in trying to meet your deadline, whether that
be moving to a new city for a job start date or simply living with your new
spouse after your nuptials. An attorney will also know a few things that you might be
able to use to your advantage should the issue arise again. For instance, some
people know that their career might require them to move quickly again. An
attorney will know drafting strategies
in your new parenting plan that can help you expedite your next move. |
