Traveling abroad with a child – a lawyer in Olomouc and Ostrava will help you

Our lawyers and attorneys will be happy to assist you with advice in the area of TRAVELING ABROAD WITH A MINOR CHILD, whether it is a consultation on the matter, a proposal for a court injunction for the other parent in the form of an interim measure, or the drafting of a travel consent form.

When do I not need the other parent’s consent to travel?

A – trips abroad

B – holidays abroad

When do I need the other parent’s consent to travel?

A – for long-term stays abroad

B – for moving abroad

What if I go abroad without the other parent’s consent and without even informing them?

Such a situation could be interpreted by the other parent as international child abduction, which could trigger strong legal consequences, both within family law and criminal law. Therefore, we strongly advise against such actions.

What to do when the other parent refuses to grant consent for travel?

In such a case, it is possible to apply to the court with a motion for the court to replace the other parent’s consent with its decision.

What to do if you are concerned that the other parent will travel abroad with the child and not return?

In such a case, it is also possible to apply to the court with a motion for an interim measure to prohibit such parent from traveling abroad without your consent. The court will enter the decision into the Schengen Information System, which then monitors any potential attempt to travel abroad.

Do I have to visit the attorney’s office in person? Not if you do not wish to.

We can handle the entire process of legal advice or legal representation regarding TRAVELING ABROAD WITH A CHILD for you remotely. You write us your requirements and we will draft all the necessary documents for you with instructions on how to proceed. By saving both your time and ours, you will also SAVE MONEY.

How can you contact us?

Ideally via the contact form on the website or via email at [email protected]. Alternatively, you can contact us by phone. However, we are often in meetings or at court, so we may not answer the call, but we will call you back as soon as possible.

Do you provide legal services online?

Yes, in many cases personal contact with the client is not necessary at all and the service can be provided entirely remotely online to the client’s satisfaction. This saves both the client’s time and money.

How long does it take for us to respond to your inquiries and questions?

In the vast majority of cases, we respond on the same or the following day.

How does a legal consultation take place?

Most often via a phone or video call. However, if the client prefers a face-to-face meeting, myself or one of my colleagues will meet them at the office. Occasionally, some clients prefer to consult the matter in writing via email.

Can a client come to the office without an appointment, ring the bell, and arrange a meeting on the spot?

No. In all likelihood, no one will even open the door. Since we have various meetings in different cities, we are often on the road. Many of us also work from home. It is therefore ideal to arrange a meeting via the contact form, email, or by phone.
