Grandparent Rights - Child Custody

If you have been primarily responsible for your grandchild for 2 consecutive years, you may petition the court for custody of your grandchild. As an experienced Kingston child custody lawyer, I will help you prove to the court that changing custody would be in the child's best interest.

Grandparent Rights - Visitation

My grandparents' rights law office represents clients wishing to obtain visitation rights to see their grandchild. If a parent fails to have regular contact with their child, then the grandparent will likely be unable to continue a relationship with their grandchild. As an experienced attorney, I work to prove that your ongoing relationship has been disrupted.
