Google Review:
“I contacted Mr. Knox because the late Rick Beswick was a trusted friend. I was charged with a horrible criminal case Mr. Knox kept me calm and rational and was able to have the case dismissed without a trial, plea bargain or any fines. I am very grateful for his professionalism and staying on top of it. Without him I may have had very real problems that could have potentially affected my entire life.“

The Law on Parental Relocation & Move-Aways

In the last ten years, California law on parental relocation has become more lenient. Parents who wish to move away — either out of the state or out of the country — with their child are often able to do so more easily.

However, the consequences of a move away without the court’s permission can be serious. Parents often risk serious negative effects on their child custody arrangement when they do not take necessary legal steps before the move occurs.

California law does not require parents to prove that the move is “necessary.” Instead, it recognizes valid reasons for a parent to move away from the state. A new job, new marriage, home foreclosure or bankruptcy may all be good reasons.

Parents wishing to prevent a move must show the courts that the move away will create a detriment to the child. This is best done with the assistance of an experienced family law attorney like the lawyers at Milligan, Beswick, Levine & Knox LLP serving San Bernardino & Riverside Counties.
