Understanding Grandparents’ Rights: What You Need to Know

Overview:

Family relationships can be deeply meaningful and sometimes legally complex. In New York, grandparents don’t automatically have the right to visitation, but in certain cases, the law allows them to seek court-ordered access. Understanding when and how that’s possible is key to protecting those important bonds. In this webinar, Daniel Gvertz, Esq. and Jillian Falt, Esq. will provide an overview of grandparent visitation and custody rights.

Participants will explore:

  • Understanding the Domestic Relations Law statute; 
  • how Troxel v. Granville shaped grandparents’ rights;
  • what evidence and documents grandparents will need to gain custody or visitation rights;
  • understanding extraordinary circumstances; and
  • when to seek counsel.
