The parents live separately and there is no agreement on the child's residence? We check the current situation, the decisions and the needs of the minor to prepare an appropriate agreement or request.

Description

Establishing a minor's place of residence (domicile)

The child's home after separation

The request must be built around the best interest of the child. We analyze stability, effective care, family relationships, and other relevant circumstances. The fact that one parent owns a home or has higher income should not be treated as a guarantee of the solution.

What the lawyer can help you with

Analysis of the initial determination of the dwelling or of the modification of an existing measure.
Preparation of the position, pleadings and evidence proposals.
Evaluation of the possibility of an agreement between the parents.
Analysis of a provisional measure, if there is an emergency and the conditions are met.
Coordinating the application with parental responsibility, child contact arrangements and maintenance.

Documents and information for the first discussion

Existing decisions and agreements, the child’s documents, information about current residence and relevant documents regarding care and school. Specifically describe the proposed change and its effect on the child. Specify any travel to another state or any process that has already begun.

Changing the residence and urgent measures

The child’s relocation, the establishment of a new home and obtaining a travel agreement may involve different steps. We verify the rights and active measures before taking unilateral action. If there is an immediate danger, we request the authorities’ intervention via 112.

Frequently asked questions

Is the residence established automatically in the mother's name?

The parent’s sex does not automatically determine the outcome. The assessment depends on the child’s best interests and the evidence.

Can I request the change of an already established residence?

We are checking the circumstances that occurred subsequently and what justifies the change. A full resolution is necessary, not just a mere account of it.

Does this request also set the schedule for the other parent?

The objects are distinct, although they can be analyzed together. We prepare the requests according to the situation and the applicable procedure.
