Grandparents’ Rights in St. Louis County, MO

Protecting Your Rights to Your Grandchildren

When spouses are going through a divorce or bitter custody battle, they are not the only people affected by the emotional fallout of divorce. Oftentimes other family members, such as the grandparents, will suffer the effects of divorce if their children create separation arrangements that jeopardize their relationships with their grandchildren. Sometimes parents will attempt to cut off grandparents from their grandchildren due to anger or bitterness.

What Options Do You Have As A Grandparent?

If you are a grandparent who has been a victim of such behavior, you have the right to do the following:

  • Request mediation with the parents to try to seek certain visitation time with your grandchildren
  • Petition the court to award you, the grandparents, certain rights of visitation with your grandchildren
  • Request custody or guardianship of your grandchildren, in certain situations where the children’s parents are unfit to care for the children

All family law cases involving children are decided according to “the best interest of the child” as determined by the court. Therefore, it is important that you hire a St. Louis County family law attorney who can petition your case to the judge.
