If both parents are willing to go through with the change in custody can you just go to some court and sign paperwork and have it done? This is between two different states also. Thanks.

Has an ongoing participate in the process of child support and custody procedures, I can say from experience half your battle is already won. There are many online legal self help sites that provide the forms and tutorial as to the proper way to fill out and file the necessary forms. Depending on which Court has the jurisdiction, they probably have a county provided website with All necessary procedures. What makes your case good, is that it seems that both parents have put aside themselves and are doing what is best for the children. With a little effort you can do this without the assistance of an attorney. However, if either party feels uncomfortable, you can do the leg work, filling out the forms and handling the filing, only you would have a mutual independent attorney review. Another way which is less than an attorney, is a paralegal filing service. Good luck!

you never are required to have an attorney represent you in court. you can't "just go to some court" and have it changed. the court will look at what's in the best interest of the children & give custody accordingly. if both parties agree, they will usually follow what they want - but only if it's good for the kids.

I would think so.
I'm not a parent so I don't know but if one parent has custody and the other only visiting rights then you need to see a lawyer but if it is joint custody I wouldn't think so.
