What is the most helpful evidence a parent can have in legal proceedings to relocate from Israel with minor children?

A favourable report from the court-appointed clinical pyschologist. The Supreme Court has stated many times in the context of relocation cases that the report and recommendations of the court -appointed expert at the level of a clinical psychologist is a  key tool at the court’s disposal and forms a “substantial part” of the evidence in relocation cases, especially the testing of each parent's parental ability and suitability as custodian. It did so expressly in Leave of Civil Appeal 10060/07. Such independent evidence is of far greater significance than any evidence brought by a parent,though  a parent wishing to relocate must bring evidence to support his/her relocation plan regarding housing and schooling for the minors etc, employment opportunities and means of family support etc
