Even if your adult child doesn’t have custody of your grandchildren, you can still be a part of their lives. A family law attorney from Kelley | Lawrence can help you navigate child custody laws as they pertain to grandparent rights. We’ll do everything we can to make sure your relationships with your grandchildren remain intact.
KNOW YOUR GRANDPARENT RIGHTS
In some situations, the court can enforce your right to visit your grandchildren, even against the parent’s wishes. You might be able to get visitation rights if:
- Your adult child and their spouse are divorced
- Either parent was accused of child abuse
- Either parent was incarcerated or found incompetent to care for your grandchildren
- The parent-child relationship was terminated by the court
- Your grandchildren lived with you for over six months
