Child Relocation from Colorado

State Requirements for Child Removal from Colorado

Relocation outside of Colorado can be a difficult and traumatic experience for both parents and children. If the parents cannot reach an amicable agreement, a request for relocation of a child out of state may be escalated to a family court that will consider all pertinent information before making an appropriate and legally-binding decision. The legal process can be complicated for many, and an accomplished divorce attorney with Cantafio & Song PLLC can help make your case heard in the most effective way possible.

Colorado has several requirements for legally relocating a child from the state. First, the custodial parent must provide written notice to the non-custodial parent outlining the parent’s desire to relocate, including the relocation destination, appropriate reasons for the relocation and a modified agreement for parenting time, decision-making, and child support. Ultimately, the court will consider several factors before making a decision in the best interest of the child at a relocation hearing, if necessary.
