Q: do you know any Lawyer’s that have dealt with relocation when it comes to child custody cases?
I was just summons with paperwork for child custody from my newborns father, who has yet to establish paternity, and I haven’t heard from him the whole time I was pregnant didn’t hear from him up until about a week ago and three days after he reached out, he filed for more than half custody and before he had filed and explain to him that I was going back to either New Hampshire Maine, and where I’m from where I have family and all that and so I’m looking for someone who can specialize or who does specialize in relocation so that I have the best fight to obtain that!
A: Until paternity is established the mother has all custody rights. This is a delicate area of family law so you need to speak to a local family lawyer who can give you specific advice on how to defend a relocation.
