Grandparents play an essential role in the lives of their grandchildren, offering love, stability, and support. In Pennsylvania, grandparents may have the right to seek custody or visitation under certain circumstances, such as when the parents are unable to care for the child, or when it’s in the best interest of the child. At M.L. Martin & Furnace, LLC, we are dedicated to helping grandparents understand and assert their legal rights, ensuring their relationship with their grandchildren is preserved.
Securing grandparents’ visitation or custody rights can be complex. Pennsylvania law considers several factors to ensure that the child’s well-being is prioritized. Here are six key factors that can influence grandparents’ rights:
Filing for custody or visitation as a grandparent requires a thorough understanding of Pennsylvania law. The legal process involves submitting a formal petition to the court, outlining the reasons why visitation or custody would benefit the child. M.L. Martin & Furnace, LLC will guide you through this process, ensuring your case is presented clearly and effectively.
When seeking visitation or custody, it’s essential to demonstrate that spending time with grandparents serves the child’s best interest. Courts will examine various aspects, including the child’s emotional needs, stability, and the quality of the relationship with the grandparents.
At M.L. Martin & Furnace, LLC, we understand how emotionally charged these cases can be. We are committed to helping you build a strong case to secure your rights and maintain your relationship with your grandchildren.
