Home » » Child Relocation

If my only real reason for wanting to relocate abroad with my children is to get all of us away from my 'ex' , whom I detest, will I have a chance of getting permisison to do so from an Israeli court ?

Not if the court finds out your real motive is just to cut the children's father off from them. Permission to relocate minor children abroad is granted when the parent applying to relocate has reasonable and legitimate reasons and the move would be in the minors' good. A custodial parent hoping to relocate must also persuade the court that  he/she respects the children's right to have a meaningful and on-going relationship with the other parent and his right to the same with them. A relocation plan must include suggestions for securing that on-going relationship.
