Grandparent Rights 

​Years ago, New York State started to recognize that, under certain circumstances, grandparents have the right to have a legally protected meaningful relationship with their grandchild/children. The standard applied is “what is in the children’s best interests.” 

It is not easy to override the decision of a parent or parents who do not allow such a relationship, rendering this a complicated area of family law. Therefore, it is imperative to work with an attorney that understands the nuances, procedure and standards of proof required to win or defend your case. Our Firm began representing clients regarding grandparent rights cases when the New York Court of Appeals first established case law on this issue paving the way for such legal actions.​
