Visitation Rights and Child Custody in New York
Depending on the custody arrangement that is arrived at during your divorce, visitation rights may be granted to the non-custodial parent. Visitation rights, including their terms and a parenting schedule, may be determined by parents. But if the parents cannot arrive at an amicable solution, the court will decide. Working with an experienced family law attorney who is familiar with the family court system can help you protect your rights and your child's best interests.
At my law firm of Albert Jacobus Myburgh, P.C., I have more than 25 years of legal experience and help families throughout New York City deal with issues of child custody, child support and visitation rights. I will work with you to determine a visitation schedule for you and your child, while looking at other issues that may arise in the future. Whether your divorce is contested or uncontested, it is important to know you are making the right choices not only for yourself, but for your family.
Important Issues to Resolve Regarding Your Children
Determining visitation rights and other custody matters can be complex, emotional and contentious. I recognize how sensitive these issues are for my clients and provide experienced legal service that is both knowledgeable and compassionate. During all phases of your case, I will be there to answer any questions you may have, to provide honest advice and to help you seek the outcome you deserve.
Custody and visitation rights issues may arise for:
- Parents going through a divorce
- Custodial parents who wish to deny visitation rights
- Non-custodial parents who wish to obtain visitation rights
- Grandparents and other relatives who wish to seek visitation rights
- Parents who wish to change current visitation rights
I encourage parents to work together to make decisions about visitation rights, since cooperation will generally result in more successful agreements. When cooperation is not possible, however, I am also a seasoned litigator who fights to protect my clients' rights by zealously representing them in court.
