Protecting Victims of Parental Kidnapping: The Skiendziul Law Firm
Welcome to the official webpage of The Skiendziul Law Firm, a dedicated team of legal professionals providing comprehensive legal services in cases involving parental kidnapping. Our firm specializes in assisting abused parents who have fled with their children over state lines to escape abusive relationships. We understand the gravity of these situations and are committed to utilizing our expertise to protect the rights and well-being of both parents and children.
The Reality of Parental Kidnapping
Parental kidnapping occurs when one parent unlawfully removes or conceals a child from the other parent, often in violation of a court order or custody agreement. In cases where abuse is present, the fleeing parent may argue that they were left with no choice but to escape the abuser with their child. It is crucial to navigate such situations with care, ensuring the safety of the child while respecting the legal framework.
Understanding the Legal Protections
The legal framework governing cases of parental kidnapping and domestic abuse varies between states. The Skiendziul Law Firm has a deep understanding of these intricacies, allowing us to provide tailored guidance to our clients. We work closely with our clients to assess their unique circumstances and devise strategic solutions that protect the interests of the parent and child.
The Interstate Aspect: Crossing State Lines
When an abused parent flees across state lines, they may be confronted with additional legal complexities. The Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA) helps determine which state has jurisdiction over child custody matters. Our firm remains up-to-date with the latest laws and regulations to ensure our clients receive accurate and reliable advice.
