Re: un-wed custody-parental rights
If he has never sought Court orders, then he really has no right to stop you from moving. He really has no rights of any kind until he gains Court orders. However, your actions can always be brought up later with respect to relocation, allowing him access, etc.
I can explain the issues and procedures better by phone or in person. As you can imagine, there is too much to cover via e'mail. We offer free 1/2 hour consultations, in which we can discuss the matter in more detail.
Please call me directly to discuss the specifics of your case, or contact my assistant Audrey to schedule a free 1/2 hour consultation. I look forward to talking with you.
