Helping Child & Parents With Relocation Issues in New Jersey
By New Jersey statute, where the Superior Court “has jurisdiction over the custody and maintenance of parents divorced, separated or living separate” and where such children “are natives of this State, or have resided five years within its limits,” neither parent may remove them from the State without the consent of the other parent or leave of court (See N.J.S.A. 9:2-2). In adjudicating requests by parents to relocate with their children, applications which judges notoriously find difficult, the standard to be applied depends on the custodial arrangement exercised by the parties.
Whether you are seeking to relocate with your children or are opposed to a former spouse or partner taking them out of state, the attorneys at Ziegler Law Group LLC are prepared to advocate on your behalf.
