Do Grandparents Have Visitation Rights in NY?
The short answer is, “Yes.” However, because the interests of the children must be protected, a number of family agencies and authorities can be involved in deciding child custody and visitation. When deciding grandparent visitation, the court will consider various factors, such as the child-grandparent bond, the effect of the visitation on the child, and any history of abuse. Decisions can be made by parties other than the family if things get out of hand, too emotional, or heated. Having a rational and experienced lawyer working to protect the rights of relatives and the best interests of the children is important.
Attorney Amedio knows that grandparents’ rights to visit with their grandchildren are often overlooked in divorce cases. This is why it is important to secure a resourceful attorney who knows how to gather evidence in your favor and effectively communicate the family’s concerns to the court.
