Dutchess County Custody Attorney
Volatile economic conditions and widespread societal change to a more mobile society have made parental relocation a key issue for many divorced couples. If you are a custodial parent who wants to move your children for important reasons, or a non-custodial parent trying to prevent such a move and protect your visitation rights, we at Vasti & Vasti, P.C., can provide valuable legal counsel and action.
Any proposed parent relocation must be viewed for its specific facts and through the lens of New York family law. Attorney Tom Vasti will hear you out in a free initial consultation and move decisively to evaluate the facts and circumstances of your case.
Clear Explanations of Legal Guidelines and Careful Analysis of Your Case
Typically, a custodial parent is allowed the latitude to move within a 40-mile radius of the existing home — but moving out of the county, out of state or internationally may require building a very strong case that the parental relocation is in children's best interests. Lawyer Tom Vasti provides clients with insight based on decades of experience in area family courts, and we will:
- Provide professional investigation resources as necessary to gather facts and evidence relevant to your case
- Help you examine all legal options for protecting your rights to access to your children, any ordered child support, and your overall interests
- Be prepared to negotiate a fair compromise solution or fight for your goals in relocation hearings and any other court proceedings
In counseling and representing people facing pivotal family challenges, we actively look for ways not only to defend your legal rights but also to improve your overall family situation. Just as the courts do, we will prioritize issues that matter to your children — and if a custody modification is appropriate, we know precisely how to pursue one.

Attempting to move a child without court permission can be a major, serious mistake with harsh consequences. Failing to take appropriate, timely action to protect your visitation rights can also be costly.
