Factors Used to Determine the Child’s Best Interest

New York Family Courts control whether or not a custodial parent may relocate with their child. The primary consideration for the court is determining what effect the relocation will have upon the child.

The factors that the court considers include:

  • The motivations of the parent who is seeking to relocate
  • The child’s happiness in the current location
  • The quality of the relationship that a child has with both of his or her parents
  • The current child custody order
  • The physical and emotional health of the child
  • The financial consequences of the move
  • The ability to maintain the relationship between the child and the noncustodial parent

  • "You will be in great, capable hands here."
    Amanda came highly recommended to me by another well respected criminal defense attorney so my expectations were high. She was superb in family court and always genuinely cared about my case. I could not have asked for better legal representation. Paralegal Rebecca and manager Maureen are also excellent. You will be in great, capable hands here.

  • "Do not hesitate to make Montefusco Law Group your first choice."
    After experiencing three other divorce attorneys it took all the energy I had left to pray and ask God to lead me to the absolute best law firm. He answered my prayers (Montefusco Law Group)! From my first consultation with Mr. Montefusco (Robert) I felt a huge burden fall from my shoulders as I sighed a breath of relief. I knew I was going to be in good hands. And when I met Maureen (Administrative Assistant) she took my hand and never let go through every step of the way even after my case was finished. The whole staff are always courteous and professional. Robert Montefusco is the epitome of honesty, ethical and integrity. I am confident you will find the same guidance, expertise and care that I experienced. Do not hesitate to make Montefusco Law Group your first choice. I only wished I had made them my first choice.
