Child Relocation

Navigating the laws surrounding child custody and child support can be difficult at times, especially if you or a co-parent are considering relocating. There will often be many factors to consider, and it is important that all necessary procedures and requirements are followed so as not to jeopardize your rights or the welfare of your child.

Under Florida law, a parent may not permanently relocate with a child to a location that is more than 50 miles from his or her original principal residence unless either (1) the other parent consents in writing to the relocation or (2) the Court officially allows the relocation. A permanent move is one that lasts more than 60 days, thus a long vacation or short-term arrangement may not be considered a permanent relocation.

Miami family law attorney Sandy T. Fox is a Florida Bar Board Certified Marital & Family Law specialist who has the experience and knowledge you need to address all child custody matters.

Client Reviews

"Sandy Fox is a diamond in the rough. He is your advocate and comes from a sincere place of care and compassion when it comes to your family. As a mother of an infant (at the time) having divorce papers thrown at me and challenging emotional obstacles to overcome, Sandy was always available for me on his cell after hours and always explained things in practical layman's terms." Nicole A.
"Sandy Fox to the rescue! He patiently heard me out (some venting too, I imagine) and then him and I discussed my options. He was compassionate, understanding and little did he know, gave me my motivation back. Selecting him as my attorney saved me a lot time and money. He is a Superstar in my book. I remain very thankful to him and the staff. I am glad he was on my team. You will be too." Liz M.
"Aside from his direct and open communications as to what was to be expected; within a few days, I was already seeing results. Sandy's no-nonsense approach to Family Law was exactly what I was seeking and I am thankful, every day, for his intervention. I highly recommend Sandy Fox; you get what you pay for (and then some)." Famiglia B.
