What if parents disagree on the choice of school or preschool? – a lawyer in Olomouc and Ostrava will help you

Co když se rodiče neshodnou na výběru školy či školky? – právník v Olomouci a Ostravě vám pomůže

Are you unable to agree with the other parent on which school or preschool your child will attend or where they should transfer? In such a case, the court must replace the consent of the other parent. Our lawyers and attorneys will be happy to assist you with consultancy in the area of DETERMINING THE CHOICE OF SCHOOL AND PRESCHOOL. Whether it involves a consultation on the matter, drafting a court submission, or representing you before the court.

Can a parent enroll a child in school without the consent of the other parent?

If a parent acts in good faith and the other parent does not object, and the school has no information that the other parent disagrees, the school will enroll the child.

When to file a petition with the court?

Given that enrollments for the 1st grade take place in January and February, we recommend filing a petition to replace the consent of the other parent at the beginning of autumn. At the same time, we suggest proposing that the decision be provisionally enforceable—i.e., that it takes effect immediately without having to wait for the regional court’s decision. Beforehand, it is certainly advisable to try all options to reach an agreement. If the parents cannot agree, it is best to first contact the Authority for Social and Legal Protection of Children (OSPOD) or a mediation center.

Is a court fee paid in this type of proceeding?

No, it is not.

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

We can handle the entire process of legal consultancy or legal representation regarding the REPLACEMENT OF THE OTHER PARENT’S CONSENT FOR SCHOOL CHOICE for you remotely. You write us your requirements, and we will draft all necessary documents for you with instructions on how to proceed. By saving both your time and ours, you will also SAVE MONEY.
