Should I Move Out of the House?

Los Angeles Child Custody and Visitation

If you, as a parent, are considering divorce, legal separation, or dissolution of partnership, you may have gotten advice from various sources on important questions:

Should I move out of my home? How will it affect custody?

First of all, as Los Angeles divorce and child custody lawyers we want you to know: Whether you are a father or mother, our attorneys can keep you in your home. Unless the court has issued a restraining order requiring you to stay away from the family home, our attorneys will see that you are not forced out.

Talk with a divorce and custody lawyer before deciding

You may have heard that if you move out of your home you will damage your chance of getting sole or joint custody or liberal visitation rights in later divorce proceedings. This is not necessarily true. Whether you are the child's father or mother, if you have a reason to move out of your home our lawyers will help you find a way to do so without damaging your legal position during temporary or permanent custody proceedings.

It is extremely important, as soon as you consider separation or divorce that you consult with a well-qualified family law attorney who is familiar with the courts in your area. At Stolar & Associates our Los Angeles lawyers have been representing clients throughout Southern California communities, including Ventura, San Bernardino, Riverside, and Orange County, for over twenty years.
