Recovery or Relocation Order

After separation, it is not uncommon for one parent to wish to relocate with a child to a new location. Such decisions can significantly impact parenting arrangements and a child’s relationship with both parents. Without the prior written consent of the other parent or a court order, it is not advisable to move a child, as this may give rise to serious legal consequences.

 

At Mannion Lawyers, we provide clear, practical advice to parents - particularly fathers - who are facing relocation or recovery order issues. If the other parent is considering moving away or has already relocated with your child, it is important to act quickly. Our team can explain your legal rights, outline the available options, and help you take the necessary steps to protect your relationship with your child.

 

We understand that relocation and recovery matters are often urgent and emotionally charged. Mannion Lawyers combines empathy with strategic legal guidance to ensure that every decision prioritises the child’s best interests while preserving meaningful parental involvement. Whether through negotiation or court proceedings, we work to secure practical, fair outcomes that support family stability and ongoing connection.
