In order to relocate with their child in Louisiana, your buddy must fulfil certain regulations. They must provide written notice to the other parent well in advance and obtain court permission if there is no current custody agreement. The most crucial consideration is what is best for the child. To persuade the judge, your buddy can demonstrate how the transfer helps the child (better career, education, etc.) and how they will still be able to see the other parent. It also helps if remaining put harms the child. Proof and documentation are vital. Trying to sort things out with the other parent outside of court is also a smart option. Most significantly, a lawyer who understands Louisiana’s kid relocation rules can greatly assist your buddy succeed.
