Grandparent Rights
Many grandparents play an active role in raising or caring for their grandchildren, while others play a more traditional role and treasure the time they get to spend together.
When couples separate, grandparents are often cut-off from access to the grandchildren they’ve known and loved. While parents generally have the right to choose who spends time with their children, courts do care about children’s best interests and the emotional damage that can be caused to a child by eliminating grandparents from their lives. Time is of the essence if you are seeking visitation or an allocation of parental responsibilities (i.e., custody) to your grandchild, so please contact us to protect your rights and discuss your options.
