What affects parenting time decisions?
Parenting time, or visitation, is often granted to the non-custodial parent to ensure they can maintain a relationship with their child. The family court takes several factors into account prior to determining the visitation rights.
Said factors can include:
- Physical Health of Each Party
- Interaction of Your Child with Each Parent
- Wishes of You and Your Ex-Spouse
- Wishes of Your Child
- Your Child's Attachment to Their Current Location
- The Mental Health of Each Party
The court may also consider you and your ex-spouse's ability to encourage your child to spend time with the other party. If you need to change your parenting plan due to relocation, we can ensure the proper relocation channels are taken by the custodial spouse, as well as ensure the non-custodial parent is granted fair visitation rights.
