Rights of Grandparents
Whether you are a parent or a grandparent, you may be concerned about the rights a grandparent has to a child. During a divorce, you may be concerned that it may have a negative impact on the relationship between a grandparent and a grandchild. At Fisher Law LLC we recognize the unique legal issues that grandparent’s rights statutes have on a family. We provide the knowledgeable, yet compassionate legal representation parents and grandparents need when access to the child is threatened by an impending divorce between the child’s parents.
Best Interests Of The Child
If the parents and grandparent cannot agree, under certain factors, the court can determine if visitation by the grandparent would be in the child’s best interests, or if it would somehow endanger the child’s health or impair the child’s emotional development. The court may order visitation if the statutory factors for grandparent’s rights allow for visitation. To learn more about grandparent’s rights, we encourage you to speak with a member of our legal team.
