Visitation Attorney in Long Island

There are many aspects of divorce proceedings involving children that must be understood and properly arranged for.  Once divorce litigation, divorce mediation or uncontested divorce proceedings have started rolling and child custody has been determined, visitation schedules for parenting time need to be established for each parent.  The parent without primary custody of the child has definite visitation rights.  Visitation schedules are determined by the court in the best interests of the child.  The court generally wants both parents to be as involved in the child's life as possible and will attempt to set a visitation schedule that allows that.  Visitation rights may be denied or drastically limited, however, if a parent has shown behavior that could in some way endanger the child or otherwise proves that that parent does not act in the child's best interests.  A Long Island visitation lawyer may be able to help you understand all the ins and outs of this aspect of family law.

Parents are not the only relations of a child that can apply for visitation rights.  Grandparental rights can be used to petition the court for visitation of a grandchild.  While grandparents' rights definitely exist, they in no way guarantee that visitation will be granted.  Consulting with a Long Island visitation attorney at Meyers Law Group, PC is the first step.
