Relocation, Custody & Visitation

Seattle and Tacoma Washington Child Relocation Lawyer

After parents have a final parenting plan, many parents wish to move out of the area with their children and must file a Notice of Intent to Relocate the Children. Often, the other parent does not want the children to be moved and must file an Objection to the Relocation of the children. The parents then face a proceeding to modify their final parenting plan that can be more upsetting than when the parents' final parenting plan was originally established.

• Since the Relocation Statute went into effect in 2000, we at Lutz Law Offices have been fearlessly representing clients who wish to relocate their children or those who are faced with the possibility that their children will be moved away from them. No matter what the situation is, we can help. Our exceptional attorneys and staff have many years of experience handling these types of cases. We are very sensitive to your needs and to the nature of the case.

• When parents wish to relocate their children or object to the relocation of their children, the child faces the possible loss of a significant amount of time with the parent who does not move with the child. The legal issues of the Relocation law are complicated. We work to ensure that our clients understand this complicated process and are able to address the legal requirements. If the relocation of the children is permitted, or a parent chooses to relocate without the children, we work to make sure that visitation rights are preserved.

• In some cases, parents may wonder how they can prepare to relocate children or object to any future attempt to relocate children before their final parenting plan is established. We can help you draft your final parenting plan to address the issue of future relocation.
