What is in the best interest of the child after a divorce? This is the most important question the court asks after a divorce.

However, for many reasons, people find themselves in the situation of wanting to spend time in another city after a divorce, and if you can provide reasons that this is in the best interest of the child, then the court will take this into account. For example, if you have additional support in another city or there might be better employment opportunities in another city, and therefore can provide better for your child.

Each circumstance is different each relationship is different, and you're best off speaking to a family lawyer before you make a decision to move.
