Alphabet Soup: UCCJEA and UIFSA


Knowing where, when, and how to file your case can have enormous implications for your client. Even if your case is a slam dunk on the facts, failing to recognize and use the proper procedure can have you back at square one.

With all the coming and going, what are the things to remember when trying to enforce and/or modify foreign orders? This presentation discusses registration of foreign orders, communication among courts when releasing jurisdiction and more.

This session covers the Uniform Child Custody & Enforcement Act (UCCJEA) and the Uniform Interstate Family Support Act (UIFSA), as well as a brief introduction to other “alphabet soup” statutes that can impact your practice.
