Re: Children

Initially check your divorce documents regarding any provision about a parent moving more than 45 miles or out of state.

You should have a preference over anyone but your wife for the children to live with you. However, you will probably have to go back to Court to change the residence of the children and to get child support.

If you wish to discuss this in more detail feel free to e-mail me your telephone number and time of day to call.
