Child relocation disputes demand specialized expertise and absolute discretion.
At Relocation Mediation we exclusively focus on pending child relocations and long-distance parenting, providing clarity and durable solutions uniquely suited to the fine details of sharing custody at a distance.
Our mediators are interdisciplinary family law professionals at the leading edge of the long distance education for legal and mental health professionals across the country.
Why Relocation Cases Are Different
Relocation isn’t a routine custody issue—it’s a profound family transition with lifelong consequences.
Most parenting plans are designed for local custody exchanges and familiar routines. But long-distance moves change everything. New routines will be crafted based on the longer distance and related routines will adjust accordingly, each parent will need to be intentional to keep the strong bonds going between the child and both parents.
At Relocation Mediation, we focus exclusively on these rare and complex cases. Our process anticipates every detail—travel logistics, schooling, healthcare, communication, transitions, contingency planning and more—while keeping the child’s emotional,
educational, developmental and social needs at the center of every plan.
Your relocation and long-distance parenting plan should not be treated like an ordinary custody case, critical elements must be identified, addressed and not overlooked. That’s why we exist. We help families reach sustainable, practical agreements that work in real life—not just on paper. Learn More
