Parental Relocation After Divorce

If you need an Omaha parental relocation attorney, contact Higgins Law at 402-933-7600 to schedule a consultation.

We live in a mobile society where half of those who marry will divorce. With more children born out of wedlock than in decades past, these children fare no better than their counterparts born to parents who, though married, will ultimately divorce.

What you should take from this is that many children live between two households — each managed by a single parent or parent and stepparent. Those caregivers’ opportunities and desires differ as to education, employment and love (to name just a few variables). Often, remarriage, schooling or employment will pull a parent to seek opportunities in these regards out of state. If that parent has custody (including joint custody), he or she must seek the court’s permission to permanently move the children from this state to another.

Work With An Attorney Who Helped Shape Parental Relocation Law In Nebraska

Having been the attorney who represented the father in the Nebraska case defining the very criteria for such litigation, Farnsworth v. Farnsworth, and having represented dozens of parents in such cases, our founding attorney, Matt Higgins, not only knows the law of removal but also had (and has) a hand in creating it.

Whether necessity has you requesting such a move or you are the parent faced with the threat of your children being moved away by the other parent, you will need counsel. Why not hire the attorney who had a hand in the inception of the modern laws that define such cases?

Do Not Wait To Contact A Skilled Relocation Lawyer
