Parenting Time Cases on Long Island

Garden City Visitation Lawyers

If you are filing for divorce and have not been granted physical custody of your child, it is likely that you will be awarded visitation rights. Generally, a court will not deny visitation rights unless a parent has been deemed "unfit," due to drug or alcohol abuse, the commission of domestic violence or child abuse, or mental illness. Courts are willing to grant visitation on a regular basis, as it is usually in the best interests of the child to have contact with both parents.

Why hire an attorney?

In the aftermath of a divorce, visitation rights are usually awarded based upon a child custody arrangement that has been worked out between the two parents, or decided on by a court. Visitation issues are not always easily resolved, even in uncontested divorces, so it is important to have the help of an aggressive attorney who will seek a resolution that is favorable to all of the involved parties, especially the child. If you are seeking parental visitation rights, contact a Garden City visitation attorney from our team who will provide you with powerful representation in your case.
