What Does Massachusetts Law Say About Grandparents’ Rights?
A grandparent’s right to seek court-ordered visitation with grandchildren depends on the best interests of the child’s standard. The court must consider all relevant factors when deciding whether or not a grandparent will be granted legal visitation rights with their grandchild.
Here are some everyday situations where grandparents may see the courts for visitation.
- Parents were married and got divorced.
- Parents have court-ordered separation.
- One or both of the parents are deceased.
- It’s been determined that it’s in the grandchild’s best interest.
- The grandparents and child were particularly close before the visitation rights issues began.
When dealing with any area of family law, you need an experienced attorney who will determine what is best for you and your grandchild. Grandparent’s rights are complicated and require a legal battle in court with strict timelines set forth by the law.
