Tampa Custody Attorney Gary Dolgin Explains Fourth Factor In Determining Contested Relocation Regarding Age and Maturity of The Child

Determining Contested Relocation

There is no presumption in favor of or against a request to relocate with a child when the relocation will “materially affect” the current time-sharing, access and contact with the other parent or other persons entitled to contact and access.

The court will evaluate several factors when reaching a decision on contested relocation of a child.

The fourth factor the court is to evaluate in reaching its decision is:

The child’s preference, considering the age and maturity of the child.
