Law Office of Elizabeth M. Lewis

OUT OF STATE CUSTODY

Interstate Child Custody Lawyer
San Diego, California

At the law office of Elizabeth M. Lewis, located in San Diego, California, we have handled various interstate child custody issues for more than 10 years.  We are capable of handling all types of cases involving child custody and visitation, whether they be part of a divorce proceeding or a dispute between unmarried couples.  When it comes to interstate child custody matters, we have the knowledge and experience to provide the following services:

  • Initial Child Custody and Visitation Determination
  • Modification of Interstate Child Custody and Visitation Order

In most family law cases where child custody and visitation are issues, both parents and the child live in California.  In such cases, it is unlikely that another state will become involved.  However, when one of the parents (or the child) lives outside California, questions may arise concerning how an initial custody decree can (or should) be modified. This is where the Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA) comes into play.  The UCCJEA governs whether a state has jurisdiction over cases involving an out-of-state resident.

Elizabeth Lewis assists parents living in (and outside) California on custody and visitation modifications, non-custodial parent relocations, and other issues related to interstate divorces. She provides practical, straightforward advice, and works diligently to protect your interests.

If you need advice regarding an interstate child custody matter, contact our office today.  We provide free initial consultations!
