Child relocation cases ‘remain difficult and finely balanced’, Victoria Rylatt and Sarah Hughes, Anthony Gold Solicitors, write in this week’s NLJ

The authors cover caselaw on both internal relocation inside the UK and relocation to other jurisdictions.

A range of cases is included, each one presenting practical and emotional conundrums for all parties concerned. The courts weigh up the various factors and provide explanation for the decision reached.

As Rylatt and Hughes write, ‘Such cases continue to find themselves at a final hearing with no compromise available. They are a reminder of the importance of a careful and considered analysis of the welfare checklist and the need for cogent reasons for rejecting the recommendations of any expert.’
