Interstate Custody Problems

It often happens following a divorce that one parent or the other will need to relocate out of state, with or without the children of the marriage.

These moves often raise legal questions. Do the other state laws contradict this state’s? Can child support or visitation court orders from one state be enforced in another state? Will relocation require a modification of child support? Which court will even hear your case?
