Indiana Relocation Law - Relocation Cases Trending Upward?
We've seen an uptick in the amount inquiries related to the Indiana relocation laws. I think there are a couple reasons for this trend.
First, word is spreading that the Indiana relocation laws, amended about two (2) years ago, are very specific and onerous. While the amendment did not change that the Court ultimately is to consider the child's best interest, it did add some relocation specific factors for the judge to analyze.
Secondly, if the recession is over, maybe more jobs are becoming available. Often a job opportunity is the impetus for a relocation case. As unemployment declines, relocations should rise.
