Hawaii Custody

WomensLaw.org does not currently have information about custody laws in Hawaii. For now, we have provided links to information we hope you find helpful:

• LawHelp.org has Hawaii-specific information about child support, custody, divorce, etc.
• On our Hawaii Selected Statutes page, you can read the law that addresses the factors that a judge will consider when deciding custody and the law regarding not being able to remove a child from the island where s/he lives once a divorce is filed.
• Court forms for parenting plans and other relevant proceedings, listed on the Hawaii State Judiciary website.

The questions in this section provide information about custody that is not specific to any state, including a section about how to try to transfer your custody case to a new state where you are living so that you can modify the custody order from your new state.
