Frequently Asked Questions

We know family law can feel overwhelming—and sometimes, just getting clear answers makes all the difference. Below you’ll find thoughtful responses to the questions we hear most often, designed to help you feel informed, prepared, and empowered as you move forward.

What are the legal options if my ex-spouse relocates without court approval?

If your ex relocates without court permission, especially if it interferes with custody or visitation, that can be a violation of your court order. You can:

  • File a motion for contempt or a motion to modify custody.
  • Request emergency relief if the move poses a risk to your child.
  • Ask the court to reassess the current custody arrangement based on the relocation.

NC courts take unauthorized relocation seriously—particularly if it disrupts your relationship with your child.
