Child Relocation Cases

Austin, Texas, Child Custody and Relocation Lawyer

As our economy changes, people move around the state and country more frequently. This may mean applying for permission to relocate outside of the current geographic area, or resisting another parent's request to move. For both parents, move away cases can lead to contentious litigation over what is truly in the best interest of the child.
