Relocation becomes a complex issue when one party wants to relocate to another country. The applicable laws are not just from different states but different countries. If you are considering international relocation, it requires a knowledgeable Florida international family law attorney who can advise you regarding your options.

Governing Laws

If you are seeking relocation, you must receive permission from the court. Taking action without taking the proper and necessary legal steps is dangerous and could be seen as parental kidnapping. Relocation is only proper if it is in the best interest of the child.

Certain laws govern international relocations and include:

• Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction Act (UCCJA)
• Parental Kidnapping Prevention Act (PKPA)
• International Child Abduction Remedies Act (ICARA)

We can explain these laws to you and how they apply to your particular case. Whether you are trying to receive permission to relocate with your child internationally or are a concerned parent who is afraid your relationship with your child will suffer, we can help.
