Walk It Through: The Grandchild After the Split

A grandparent cut off, an affidavit showing standing, a hearing, and the child's best interest.

After a divorce, the parent with the child stops all visits with a grandparent who babysat weekly for years.

Two things a person in this spot might do. Picking one shows what the law says about it.

A grandparent seeking visits, not custody. Guardianship and adoption are left out.

A practice walkthrough, not a prediction of how any real one will go. Legal information, not legal advice.
