As children grow and as families change, their needs change as well. Sometimes existing child custody orders are no longer adequate. When this happens, it is possible to request modification of an existing court order.
At the Robertson Law Firm, PLLC, with two locations in the Little Rock area, we help Arkansas parents with matters of child custody modification. Our team of knowledgeable and skilled attorneys can guide you through the process to make sure things go smoothly and that your interests — and the interests of your child — are protected.
Many of the child custody modification cases we handle involve situations where a custodial parent is allegedly not taking good care of the child. The noncustodial parent motions the court for a modification that gives him or her more time with the child. We also handle modifications of visitation from supervised visitation to unsupervised visitation, or vice versa. Some of these cases involve the very serious psychological problem of parental alienation syndrome.
Relocation Outside of Arkansas
In these difficult economic times, more and more parents are being forced to move away from Arkansas in search of employment. The Robertson Law Firm, PLLC, offers representation for matters related to parental “move aways.”
While courts cannot prohibit a move without good reason, we often advise our clients subject to existing Arkansas child custody orders that it may be prudent to get the court's permission before the move. The court will examine whether or not the move is in the best interests of the child Noncustodial parents wishing to oppose the move must show that it is not in the child's best interests.
