Relocation and Family Law
As our economy becomes more global and companies and jobs change location more often, it is becoming increasingly more common for a custodial parent to relocate children away from a non-custodial parent. Under Washington State family law, prior to relocating a child who is named in a Washington State parenting plan for a distance that would significantly disrupt the residential schedule, the relocating parent must give notice of a specified time to the other parent. The other parent then has the opportunity to answer and try to block the relocation.
